Monday 7th January 2019
Asked by:
Mary Creagh (Labour - Coventry East)
Question
to the Cabinet Office:
To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, how many in-flight files of EU legislation exist that effect the policy areas managed by his Department; and which in-flight files of EU legislation his Department intends to implement in UK law.
Answered by David Lidington
During the time-limited implementation period, EU law will continue to apply in the UK subject to the terms set out in the Withdrawal Agreement. After the implementation period, all laws in the UK will be passed by our elected representatives in Belfast, Cardiff, Edinburgh and London. The Political Declaration recognises that the UK may choose to align with the EU's rules in relevant areas to facilitate trade in goods or security cooperation.
The Official Journal of the European Union publishes upcoming EU legislation for implementation.

Exiting the European Union
"The Prime Minister’s negotiating strategy seems to be “Fail again. Fail better.” It is not going to revive her zombie Brexit deal. Whenever she decides to bring it back to the House—on Christmas eve, Christmas day or Boxing day—it will be voted down. She talks of the will of the …..."Mary Creagh - View Speech

European Union (Withdrawal) Act
