Democratic Unionist Party — East Antrim

Speaking in the House of Commons on 11 February 2025

Debate

Scrutiny of European Statutory Instruments

Contribution

Does the hon. and learned Member accept that even when we had the European Scrutiny Committee, which was able to deal exclusively with such issues, there were many EU regulations that it did not have the opportunity to discuss? Given the importance of such regulations not just to Northern Ireland but, as he pointed out, to the whole of the United Kingdom, does he agree that this leaves us vulnerable to detrimental changes in law that will not get enough examination in the House?
