Question to the Northern Ireland Office:

To ask Her Majesty's Government what plans they have to legislate to introduce a commissioner to "enhance and develop the language, arts and literature associated with the Ulster Scots/Ulster British tradition" in Northern Ireland, as set out in the New Decade, New Approach agreement, published on 9 January 2020.

The Government remains committed to the introduction of legislation for the package of identity and language measures as set out in New Decade, New Approach. The legislation will faithfully deliver what was contained in that document.
