Since the prorogation of the [[Parliament of Northern Ireland]] in 1972, the [[Attorney General for England and Wales]] was also Attorney General for Northern Ireland. The separate office of [[Attorney General for Northern Ireland]] was re-created alongside the new office of [[Advocate General for Northern Ireland]] upon the devolution of policing and justice powers to the [[Northern Ireland Assembly]] in 2010.
