Postal Packets (Miscellaneous Amendments) Regulations 2023

Baroness Scott of Needham Market Excerpts

Wednesday 19th July 2023 Grand Committee

I think the note to finish on is that this Government, as we implement the Windsor Framework—and we absolutely think it is the best deal for Northern Ireland—know that we need to have the confidence of the people of Northern Ireland in how we approach this. That means working collaboratively with all those involved and affected by the rules under the framework as we bring it in.

[The Deputy Chairman of Committees (Baroness Scott of Needham Market) (LD)]

The Question is that the Grand Committee has considered this instrument. As many as are of that opinion will say “Content”; to the contrary “Not content”.

[Noble Lords]

Content.

[Noble Lords]

Not content.

[The Deputy Chairman of Committees (Baroness Scott of Needham Market) (LD)]

The Committee stands adjourned.

--- Later in debate ---

[The Deputy Chairman of Committees (Baroness Scott of Needham Market) (LD)]

My Lords, it would be very helpful if Members could stay close by. We are just seeking advice on how to proceed, as this is quite an unusual situation.

We have now considered this instrument. It has not been agreed to, and therefore will go to the Chamber as usual.

Motion negatived.
