Correct Answer: sea routes between Great Britain and Northern Ireland


Solution : The correct choice is the third option.

Explanation:

When referring to countries, continents, states, or regions by their proper names, it's common to omit the definite article ("the"). Great Britain and Northern Ireland are proper nouns denoting specific regions rather than generic descriptions. This option accurately conveys the idea that police power is applicable specifically to the routes that link these two locations.

Therefore, the correct sentence is: It is expected that this police power will only apply to air and sea routes between Great Britain and Northern Ireland.
