Sovereignty: Northern Ireland

(asked on 28th January 2020) - View Source

Question to the Northern Ireland Office:

To ask Her Majesty's Government what plans they have, if any, to provide for a referendum in Northern Ireland on the reunification of Ireland.


This question was answered on 5th February 2020

It remains the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland's view that a majority of the people of Northern Ireland continue to support Northern Ireland's place in the United Kingdom.

The circumstances set out in the Belfast/Good Friday Agreement that require the Secretary of State to hold a referendum on Irish unification are therefore not satisfied.
