  • Summary

    Taking the long view, the WA is likely to be remembered for two matters: the position it takes on the protection of citizens’ rights (provisions which have the potential, as we shall see, to last for well over a century) and the provisions of the Protocol which could last indefinitely – or perhaps no longer than four years – depending on the outcome of consent votes in the Northern Ireland Assembly. This chapter looks primarily at the effect of the WA in the UK as a whole. It focuses on the implementation of the WA in UK law, the enforcement of rights under the Protocol, as they relate to the UK, and the position on citizens’ rights.
