Question to the Department for Exiting the European Union :
To ask Her Majesty’s Government what factors underlie their intention to take the UK outside the jurisdiction of the Court of Justice of the European Union.
This question was answered on 27th January 2017
The people voted in the referendum to leave the European Union. This is why the Prime Minister has been clear that we intend to bring an end to the jurisdiction of the European Court of Justice in the United Kingdom.
Leaving the European Union will mean that our laws will be made in Westminster, Edinburgh, Cardiff and Belfast, and those laws will be interpreted by judges not in Luxembourg, but in courts across this country.
