<p>The Government is working to ensure that stable devolved government can resume
in Northern Ireland, not least because it is important that a new Northern Ireland
Executive can contribute to the debate on EU exit.</p><p> </p><p>Meanwhile, officials
in my department have engaged with colleagues in the Northern Ireland Executive in
advance of the Bill’s introduction to Parliament to help determine the scale of changes
needed to the statute book across the UK and ensure the Bill works for Northern Ireland.
They will continue to do so during the Bill’s passage.</p><p> </p><p>If there are
any hon Members from Northern Ireland in this House or in the other place who would
like to discuss the Bill in more detail, I would be happy to meet them.</p><p> </p><p>
