What countries have a say in Andrew removal from line of succession?
Andrew Mountbatten Windsor would have to unanimously be removed from the line of succession in the British throne.
Andrew Mountbatten Windsor could lose his spot in the line of succession amid his association to Jeffrey Epstein.
The ex Prince, who allegedly sexually assaulted a teenage girl trafficked to him by Epstein, should be toppled for ceremonial reasons.
Chief Secretary to the Treasury James Murray told Sky News: "The government is considering any further steps that might be required, and we're not ruling anything out.
"But at this stage, it would be inappropriate for us to go any further because there is a live police investigation under way."
Meanwhile, Sky News maintains that countries of the Commonwealth and UK parliament collectively could remove Andrew from the line of succession.
The outlet reports: “An act of parliament - that's the one in Westminster - is required to alter the line of succession.”
Other countries that have a say in the decision include Australia, Antigua and Barbuda, the Bahamas, Belize, Canada, Grenada, Jamaica, New Zealand, Papua New Guinea, St Kitts and Nevis, St Lucia, St Vincent and the Grenadines, Solomon Islands and Tuvalu.
