Question to the Department for Exiting the European Union :

To ask the Secretary of State for Exiting the European Union, when the Government plans to cease to put new EU directives into UK law.

Government policy and legal assessment are in place to ensure full compliance with EU legal requirements until the UK leaves the EU. This includes transposition of EU directives.

Once we have left the EU the process of transposing directives will cease. The Repeal Bill will repeal the European Communities Act 1972, ending the supremacy of EU law in the UK, and will preserve the domestic law we have made to transpose directives before the day we leave the EU.
