When the noble Lord, Lord Murphy, is undertaking his review, I trust that he will look at this issue. It has been said that he has to bring forward proposals that command cross-community support. He has to include proposals that will command cross-community support, but he also has to look at the operation of the Windsor Framework. I trust that he will take a look at these types of regulations. The abdication of essential state functions by the UK Government is actually in violation of the very Windsor Framework that the Government purport to uphold. I trust that not only will the noble Lord, Lord Murphy, address these matters but that the Minister, in summing up, will address them.
