Stormont's economy committee's to meet in Newry today and Brexit will be high on the agenda.

Committee chair Conor Murphy says it's "crucial" the group hear first hand concerns about the Brexit effect in the border city.
They'll hear briefings from Southern Regional College who will host the meeting.
They'll also hear from ClanryeIT and InterTradeIreland.
Mr Murphy says leaving the European Union is causing uncertainty across the island:

"It'll have a a particular effect on the border areas because we know the impact of partition and a hard border in these constituencies here. But this will have an impact on Ireland [as a whole] and is already having an impact on Ireland."
