SECTION A
Bills and Acts of the Northern Ireland Assembly laid before
Parliament under section 15 of the Northern Ireland Act 1998
Some Northern Ireland Bills and Acts are subject to negative procedure. Section 15 of the Northern
Ireland Act 1998 provides for a period of 20 sitting days beginning with the day upon which the Bill
or Act is laid before Parliament within which Members may give notice, as the case may be, that the
Bill shall not be submitted for Royal Assent or that the Act of the Assembly shall cease to have
effect. Twenty signatories are required for a motion to be effective.

SECTION B
Treaties subject to negative resolution procedure
Some treaties are subject to negative procedure before they are ratified. Section 20 of the
Constitutional Reform and Governance Act provides for a period of 21 sitting days (days on which
both Houses sit), beginning with the sitting day after a copy of the treaty is laid before Parliament,
within which either House may resolve that the treaty should not be ratified. There are provisions for
the period to be extended and, if either House resolves that the treaty should not be ratified, a
Minister may lay a statement indicating that he or she is of the opinion that the treaty should
nevertheless be ratified (and why). If such a statement follows a resolution of the House of
Commons that the treaty should not be ratified, this triggers a further 21-day period during which the
House of Commons may come to the same resolution again.

(iii) Statutory Instruments laid under s.11 of the Public Bodies Act 2011
Instruments laid under s. 11 of the Public Bodies Act 2011 may not be made by a Minister unless
they have been approved by both Houses of Parliament after the expiry of a specified period. Under
s.11(4) of the Act, this period is 40 days, beginning with the day on which the instrument is laid
before Parliament. Under s.11(5)(a), if either House so resolves within 30 days (beginning with the
day on which the instrument is laid before Parliament), the period set under s.11 (4) is extended
from 40 to 60 days. Under s.11(5)(b), if a Committee of either House recommends during the 30 day
period that the 40 day period be extended to 60 days, the period is extended unless the House to
which the recommendation is made resolves within the 30 day period to reject the recommendation.
When reckoning the number of days expired under s.11, no account is taken of any time during
which Parliament is dissolved or prorogued or during which either House is adjourned for more than
four days.
