We have been notified of around 250 amended or replaced EU goods regulations and directives under Article 13(3) since the old Protocol came into effect, for which there was no choice but to apply them automatically. Under the Windsor Framework, as EU goods rules are amended or replaced in the future, we have the powerful new democratic safeguard provided by the Stormont Brake. This ends the automatic presumption of dynamic alignment on goods and addresses the democratic deficit, giving the Stormont institutions a powerful role in the decision on whether significant new goods rules impacting on everyday life in Northern Ireland should be applied.
