Appendix: Current functions of Northern Ireland departments and areas where their local flexibility is constrained

Writing Peace: David Trimble Collection

The document outlines the constraints on local flexibility faced by various departments in Northern Ireland due to EU and UK regulations. It details how EU legislation and UK-wide policies limit the autonomy of Northern Ireland's Department of Agriculture, Department of Economic Development, Department of Education, Department of the Environment, Department of Finance and Personnel, and Department of Health and Social Services. Each department's specific functions, such as animal health, fisheries, industrial development, education, transport policy, and public health, are discussed in terms of the constraints imposed by overarching EU directives and UK standards. The document emphasizes the limited scope for local divergence in policy implementation and the necessity to align with broader legislative frameworks.
