So why are they huffing and puffing about having that backstop in place if a no deal Brexit would force them to address the problem now?
The argument for a backstop is a complete sham.

You are assuming that the government can source the personnel and infrastructure needed with whatever resources they have. Bear in mind they don't have an infinite amount of money, even if they did, it takes time to implement the systems required and train the personnel. Also bear in mind this will be a massive IT project for the Government, and we all know they tend to take longer than expected, and come in over budget.
I say it will be a massive IT project, because they won't only need extra infrastructure in Ireland. They'll need it all over the UK.
