BRUSSELS (Reuters) - The European Commission is due to set out on Friday legal changes to ease the transport of medicines from Britain to Northern Ireland, a move that could relieve EU-UK tensions over the British province's future after Brexit.

The flow of medicines is currently unimpeded, but set to change when a grace period expires at the end of the year.
