Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask His Majesty's Government, whether the European Court of Justice will have a role in Northern Ireland under the Windsor Framework.

We have accepted that Northern Ireland will, until the people of Northern Ireland vote otherwise, continue to have special access to the EU market. The minimal number of EU laws that remain - less than 3 percent - safeguard maximum free trade and market access for NI firms. That is something businesses have specifically asked us to protect. We have publicly acknowledged the fact that the European Court of Justice is the final arbiter on matters of EU law.
