Inter-institutional relations agreement

Instruments that raise issues to be reported to the Senedd under Standing Order 21.2 or 21.3
We discuss this quite often within the committee, and I think it would be worth—if colleagues are happy—returning to this in our private discussion, because there are ways in which we have before and we can continue to take this up but don't simply rely on…
