Queen's University Belfast has published advice for staff and students about the potential impact of Brexit.

The university's Vice-Chancellor, Professor Ian Greer, said the website would help keep people up-to-date with developments in negotiations between the UK and the European Union.

The UK is due to leave the EU on March 29 but there is still no agreement between the two sides.

There is also no clear vision of how the border will operate after Brexit.

A vote on British Prime Minister Theresa May's latest deal is due to be held on Tuesday.

"As we approach the scheduled date of the UK’s departure from the EU on 29 March 2019, there remains a significant level of uncertainty around the UK’s exit and the future shape of UK-EU relations," Professor Greer said.

"I know that this is an unsettling time for many of you and you are likely to have many questions about what happens now and what this means for you. As a university, I want to assure you that we will work to support you."
