Item 4 – Order Paper 195/22-27 – Tuesday 13 October 2026

Motion: Twenty Years on from the St Andrews Agreement

Proposed:

That this Assembly notes that 20 years have passed since the St Andrews Agreement and the restoration of the devolved political institutions after a period of collapse; recognises that this Agreement, while enabling devolved decision-making to return, and securing progress on policing and justice, embedded certain reforms which have served to undermine effective decision-making and trust in government; regrets that once again we have entered into another period of significant political instability which will delay progress in addressing critical challenges to key public services, particularly in the absence of a budget, while further undermining trust and confidence in our institutions; believes that it is always better to have devolved decision-making in place than the alternative; and affirms that any move to collapse the institutions would be contrary to the public interest and would be a dereliction of duty.
