Wed, 16th Sep 2020 18:18

LONDON, Sept 16 (Reuters) - British Prime Minister Boris
Johnson on Wednesday agreed a compromise with rebels in his
party, giving parliament the final say on whether powers in a
new bill that would breach the Brexit divorce deal can be used.

A statement issued on behalf of the government and some
lawmakers who had threatened to vote down the bill said
ministers had agreed to an amendment which would place limits on
the ability to use the powers it contains.
