I have been clear that I rule nothing out. Everything is under review and I will look at all viable options to ensure that we get devolved government back up and running.
Gavin Robinson (Belfast East) (DUP)
In situations such as this, we will always get verbal excess or an aspirational wheeze from some of the participants. Will the Secretary of State indicate clearly that nowhere in the Good Friday agreement, the St Andrews agreement, the legislation that underpins them or the constitution of this country is there provision for joint authority?
Karen Bradley
I fully respect the Belfast agreement and the successor agreements. We adhere to the three-stranded approach very strictly.
