The Parties agree that bilateral arrangements should be established, as appropriate, for cross-
border rail services, including to facilitate the continued smooth functioning and operation 
of rail services, such as the Belfast-Dublin Enterprise Line and services through the Channel 
Tunnel.
 
D. Maritime transport
62.
 
The Parties note that passenger and cargo connectivity in the maritime transport sector will 
be underpinned by the international legal framework. The Parties should also make 
appropriate arrangements on market access for international maritime transport services.

The future relationship should facilitate cooperation on maritime safety and security, 
including exchange of information between the European Maritime Safety Agency (EMSA) 
and the United Kingdom Maritime and Coastguard Agency (MCA), consistent with the 
United Kingdom's status as a third country.

A. Electricity and Gas
64.
 
The Parties should cooperate to support the delivery of cost efficient, clean and secure 
supplies of electricity and gas, based on competitive markets and non-discriminatory access 
to networks.
 
 
65.
 
The Parties should establish a framework to facilitate technical cooperation between 
electricity and gas networks operators and organisations, such as the European Networks of 
Transmission System Operators for Electricity and Gas, in the planning and use of energy 
infrastructure connecting their systems. The framework should also include mechanisms to 
ensure as far as possible security of supply and efficient trade over interconnectors over 
different timeframes.
