The Windsor Framework Democratic Scrutiny Committee was established to assist with the observation and implementation of Article 13(3a) and (4) of the Windsor Framework, which is a legal agreement between the European Union and the United Kingdom which adjusts the operation of the Northern Ireland Protocol.[1] These are the parts of the Framework which set out the processes for how new, and amending or replacement EU law may apply in Northern Ireland.[2]

In order to operationalise the democratic mechanisms included within the Windsor framework, the UK parliament approved regulations.[3][4]

2022–2027 Assembly[edit]

The committee will meet for the first time in the 2022–2027 Assembly on 14 February 2024.
