This has included the Northern Ireland (Executive Formation and Exercise of Functions) Act 2018 that provides the Northern Ireland Civil Service the certainty and clarity they need to continue to deliver public services in the absence of Ministers. The Government remains of the view, however, that the best guarantee of good governance is the restoration of the Belfast Agreement institutions and is focused on seeking agreement between the parties as part of the current talks process.</p> answering member constituency Staffordshire Moorlands answering member printed Karen Bradley question first answered 01/07/2019 08:51:50 answering member 4110 label Biography information for Dame Karen Bradley

The UK Government has a duty to move forward on this important issue so that victims and survivors are able to get the progress they have been seeking for such a long time. The Government wants to consult soon, with the aim of building support and confidence in the new legacy institutions from across the community. The best way to do that is off the back of an Executive being formed, but if that does not prove possible we do need to make progress.</p> answering member constituency Staffordshire Moorlands answering member printed Karen Bradley question first answered 07/02/2018 09:34:17 answering member 4110 label Biography information for Dame Karen Bradley
