Statutory instrument requiring NI departments to exercise their functions in relation to the implementation and observance of Articles 5 (customs, movement of goods), 6 (protection of the UK internal market) and 7 (technical regulations, assessments, registrations, certificates, approvals and authorizations) of the Windsor Framework as well as its Annex 2 (provisions of EU law primarily concerning the regulation and trade of goods). SI 2024/404 also confers powers on the NI Secretary including to issue guidance related to the implementation and observance of relevant WF provisions. 

Statutory instrument to recognize in domestic legislation that the Windsor Framework is without prejudice to the existing constitutional status of NI as part of the UK, and Westminster's power to legislate for NI; to prohibit the ratification of new agreements with the EU that would create new alignment for NI and/or result in new regulatory barriers between GB and NI; to introduce transparency obligations regarding any primary legislation that would have significant adverse effects on trade between NI and GB; and to introduce new requirements regarding the conduct of any independent review of the operation of the Windsor Framework. 

Statutory instrument to extend existing protections (under the UK Internal Market Act 2020) for qualifying NI goods (QNIGs) moving from NI to GB through Ireland; to amend the definition of QNIGs such that it is more focused on NI traders; to affirm the unfettered access guarantee for QNIGs to the rest of the UK market; to confer powers on the NI Secretary to issue statutory guidance to assist authorities in exercising their duties under s46 of the UKIM Act regarding NI's place in the internal market of the UK. 

Statutory instrument to permit HMRC to share information concerning movements of goods with EU representatives where this is required for the purposes of implementing the Windsor Framework. Information shared under the powers of SI 2023/623 is expected to concern customs, VAT and excise. 

Statutory instrument establishes new arrangements under which customs duty charged in respect of certain goods entering Northern Ireland can be remitted or repaid to traders by HMRC where those goods are ultimately sold or used outside the EU. 

Statutory instrument to implement UK obligations under the 'Financing Agreement' regarding PEACE PLUS to enable the effective operation and implementation of the program. 

Statutory instrument to make amendments to the Human Medicines Regulations 2023 so as to transpose aspects of Directive (EU) 2022/642 which introduced derogations to certain EU laws that apply to Northern Ireland under the Protocol with the aim of ensuring continued supplies of medicines for human use to NI from GB.  

Statutory instrument to remove, for electricity suppliers in Great Britain, an exemption for electricity imported from EU Member States and generated from renewable resources from contributing to the costs of Contracts for Difference scheme payments. Previously, EU state aid law and single market law prevented this. The change being made does not apply to Northern Ireland because relevant EU laws still have effect there under the Protocol.  

Statutory instrument to enable businesses removing or exporting used motor vehicles from Great Britain or the Isle of Man to Northern Ireland or the European Union for resale to claim a VAT-related payment from HMRC which is generally equivalent to VAT on the price they paid for the vehicle or the value of the vehicle at the time or removal or export. This SI therefore puts second-hand car dealers in NI in a comparable financial position as their counterparts in the rest of the UK, thereby mitigating a negative impact of the Protocol. 

Statutory Instrument to ensure official controls required under Regulation (EU) 2017/625 can be carried out in Northern Ireland. Specifically, SI 2023/17 grants the DEFRA Secretary powers to ensure "enhancements to existing facilities" can be executed (see Explanatory Memorandum).
