Question to the HM Treasury:
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, what discussion he has had with the Northern Ireland Executive on the roll and remit of the Better Regulation Executive.
The Government is establishing a new Better Regulation Executive (BRE), to set direction and drive implementation of the government’s vision for a streamlined and proportionate regulatory system. A Chair will be appointed shortly.
The BRE will work in close partnership with the Department for Business, Science, Innovation and Trade and engage closely with the Northern Ireland Executive on relevant matters as appropriate.
