Parts of Boris Johnson's Brexit deal were 'always provisional', Lord Frost admitted yesterday.
The Brexit Minister's comments came as fresh talks on the Northern Ireland Protocol began in Brussels with European Commission Vice-President Maros Sefcovic.
Lord Frost said the Government always knew elements of the deal might be 'difficult to make work in practice' and it was 'not surprising' that renegotiation of the agreement was needed already.
The peer, who negotiated the deal, also left the door open to a compromise on the role of the European Court of Justice (ECJ) in resolving trade disputes in the province.
