The European Communities (Designation Orders) (Revocation) (EU Exit) Regulations 2018
The purpose of this instrument is to revoke the totality of Designation Orders on exit day which will become redundant in consequence of the repeal of the European Communities Act 1972 (“ECA”). It is important these redundant Designation Orders are revoked to ensure the UK’s statute book remains coherent and tidy.
Sifting committees’ recommendation
