Summary
Here we first look carefully at how Featural Relativised Minimality applies to wh-movement. This leads to a discussion of the relation between phases and Featural Relativised Minimality. We consider whether it is possible or desirable to reduce phase-based locality to Relativised Minimality or vice versa.
