Conservative — Brentwood and Ongar

Speaking in the House of Commons on 24 July 2024

Debate

First Minister and Deputy First Minister

Contribution

I thank the right hon. Gentleman for his answer. The Government’s manifesto states that they are “committed to implementing the Windsor Framework in good faith”. However, that manifesto did not mention the Command Paper, which was vital in getting Stormont back. As the right hon. Gentleman knows, that Command Paper contained a number of measures to strengthen the Union—the East-West Council and InterTrade UK, to name but two. Will the Government faithfully implement all those commitments in the Command Paper, which are designed to strengthen the Union?
