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, known as the "Stormont brake".^[3][4][5]

The committee will met for the first time in the 2022–2027 Assembly on 15 February 2024, has met in between and will meet again December 5, 2024.^[6]
