Call for re-think on ditching thousands of EU laws
EU laws were copied into domestic law when the UK left the European Union on 31 January 2020, and kept during a transition period that ended in January 2021.
The Retained EU Law Bill, currently being considered by MPs at Westminster, contains a "sunset clause" that means that, by the end of next year, some laws could expire automatically.The Welsh NHS Confederation, representing health bodies, has warned that rules on information consumers must be given about allergens and nutritional content in food, for example, could be lost "due to a lack of oversight".
And farmers' union NFU Cymru emphasised "we run the risk of discarding important regulatory protections"., Welsh government senior adviser on legal matters, told the Senedd last month there were "something like 2,400 pieces of legislation" involved. In his letter to Grant Shapps, also addressed to Industry and Investment Security Minister Nusrat Ghani, Senedd legislation committee chair Huw Irranca-Davies wrote: "Stakeholders have expressed to us deep concerns about the extent of the task at hand and the significant pressure caused by, what is seen by many as, a completely unnecessary sunset date of 31 December 2023."
