Made
Laid before Parliament
Coming into force in accordance with regulation 1
The Secretary of State has been designated for the purposes of making Regulations under section 2(2) of the European Communities Act 1972 M1 in relation to the matters specified in the Schedule.
The Secretary of State makes the following Regulations in exercise of the powers conferred by section 2(2) of the European Communities Act 1972 and section 8(1) of, and paragraph 21 of Schedule 7 to, the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 M2.
The Secretary of State is of the opinion that, by reason of urgency, it is necessary to make these Regulations without a draft of the instrument being laid before, and approved by a resolution of, each House of Parliament M3.
Paragraph 38(2) of Schedule 7 to the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 allows for regulations under that Act to be combined with regulations, made under other enabling provisions, which are subject to the negative resolution procedure in Parliament.
1972 c. 68; section 2(2) was amended by section 27(1) of the Legislative and Regulatory Reform Act 2006 (c.51) and by Part 1 of the Schedule to the European Union (Amendment) Act 2008 (c.7). It is prospectively repealed by section 1 of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 (c. 16), with effect from exit day (see section 20 of that Act).
