Question
To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, with reference to the Windsor Framework, published on 27 February 2023, CP 806, under what circumstances the UK can leave the Windsor Agreement.
Answer
The Windsor Framework is subject to the democratic consent mechanism agreed in 2019, which means it is for elected representatives in NI to determine whether those provisions of EU law, applied solely and only to the extent necessary to maintain maximum free trade and market access for NI, should continue to apply.
