Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:
To ask His Majesty's Government whether the Stormont Assembly Brake in the Windsor Framework can block the application of new EU laws in Northern Ireland in practice.
This question was answered on 15th March 2023
The Stormont Brake enables amended or replaced EU laws to be vetoed and permanently disapplied by the United Kingdom. The United Kingdom already has a veto on new EU laws applying in Northern Ireland.
