Northern Ireland Protocol Bill

Proceeding contribution from Karin Smyth (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 27 June 2022. It occurred during Debate on bills on Northern Ireland Protocol Bill.

Over the past six years, I have given several alternatives, including as a shadow Minister. The Secretary of State talks about the institutions. Can she give the House the details of the agreement she has secured from the political parties in Northern Ireland that they will return to Stormont on the completion of the Bill—or on the completion of Second Reading, at any point during the Committee stage, or on Third Reading? What in the Bill has secured that? What role is there for anybody in Northern Ireland, given that the powers go to the Minister of the Crown?
