The Windsor Framework protects the economic rights of the people of Northern Ireland and provides us with the basis to move forward together as one united country. The Retained EU Law Bill does not impact the Framework.

Furthermore, the Government has always been clear that we are committed to taking the necessary steps to uphold the UK’s international obligations after the sunset date, including those obligations in the Withdrawal Agreement and now in the Windsor Framework.
