Parliament would not be acting 'unconstitutionally' by passing new legislation, Government insists
Parliament would not be acting "unconstitutionally" in enacting the UK Internal Market Bill, according to a statement published by the Government about the controversial legislation.
It also argued that its ability to pass provisions would take "precedence" over the Withdrawal Agreement.
It stated: "It is an established principle of international law that a state is obliged to discharge its treaty obligations in good faith. This is, and will remain, the key principle in informing the UK's approach to international relations.
"However, in the difficult and highly exceptional circumstances in which we find ourselves, it is important to remember the fundamental principle of Parliamentary sovereignty.
"Parliament is sovereign as a matter of domestic law and can pass legislation which is in breach of the UK's treaty obligations. Parliament would not be acting unconstitutionally in enacting such legislation."
