answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 24/05/2021 answer text <p>The Government do not recognise the concept of a co-legislator. The legislatures for Northern Ireland are the Assembly and the Houses of Parliament. The Ireland/Northern Ireland Protocol gives effect to a limited group of technical EU legal rules considered necessary to facilitate trade and the movement of agrifoods.</p><p> </p><p>The Protocol provides for forums in which forthcoming legislation can be discussed, including whether new areas of law should be applied. New pieces of EU legislation that amend or replace acts referred to in the Protocol are notified to the Joint Consultative Working Group. New EU legislation that is within the scope of the Protocol but does not amend or replace acts listed in the Annexes of the Protocol, does not apply unless there is a Joint Committee decision to add the new act.</p><p> </p> answering member printed Viscount Younger of Leckie question first answered 24/05/2021 14:19:18 answering member 4169 label Biography information for Viscount Younger of Leckie
