Continued effect and cessation of effect of the EUCLU.K.
64.—[F1(A1) This part applies in relation to goods which are not subject to Article 49 of the EU withdrawal agreement.]
(1) Where, as provided by this Part, the EUCL continues to have effect in relation to goods on and after [F2IP completion day], paragraph (2) applies to the following matters—
(a)any approval or authorisation granted by, or on behalf of, HMRC or the equivalent competent authority of a member State under the EUCL or treated as valid immediately before [F2IP completion day] under Article 251 of the Delegated Regulation; or
(b)a decision given by HMRC which is a decision taken upon application.
(2) If a matter listed in paragraph (1) applies in relation to the goods immediately before [F2IP completion day], it continues to apply for so long as the EUCL continues to have effect in relation to the goods, unless and until HMRC amends or revokes the same in any particular case.
(3) The continuation of, or cessation of, the effect of the EUCL in relation to goods as provided by this Part does not—
(a)affect the operation of the EUCL or anything duly done or suffered under it,
(b)affect any right, privilege, obligation or liability acquired, accrued or incurred under the EUCL or any enactment in relation to the EUCL,
(c)affect any penalty, forfeiture or punishment incurred in respect of any offence under an enactment in relation to the EUCL, or
(d)affect any investigation, legal proceeding or remedy in respect of any such right, privilege, obligation, liability, penalty, forfeiture or punishment.
(4) Notwithstanding that the EUCL ceases to have effect in relation to goods, any such investigation, legal proceeding or remedy may be instituted, continued or enforced, and any such penalty, forfeiture or punishment may be imposed, as if the EUCL had not ceased to have effect in relation to the goods.
(5) When the EUCL ceases to have effect in relation to goods as provided by this Part at a time when the goods are located in the United Kingdom, the Act, for the purposes of these Regulations, and paragraph (6) then apply in relation to the goods.
(6) Where a requirement of the EUCL has been met or not met in relation to the goods, any equivalent requirement imposed by or under—
(a)these Regulations, or
(b)the Act, for the purposes of these Regulations,
is also to be treated as having been met or not met, as the case may be, in relation to the goods.
(7) Where the EUCL continues to have effect in relation to goods on or after [F2IP completion day] by virtue of this Part, the cessation of effect of the EUCL provided by paragraph 1(1) of Schedule 7 to the Act which would otherwise apply in relation to the goods does not apply.
