answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 25/07/2018 answer text <p>UK courts would pay due regard to CJEU case law in only those areas where the UK continued to apply a common rulebook. The common rulebook will cover goods including agri-food, where those rules are necessary to provide for frictionless trade at the border.</p><p><strong> </strong></p><p>Where the UK agrees to retain a common rulebook with the EU, it will be important for businesses and citizens here and in the EU that those areas are interpreted and applied consistently. The UK has therefore proposed that it would commit by treaty that its courts would pay due regard to CJEU case law, insofar as this was relevant to the matter before them. This is a recognition of legal fact - no other court can bind the EU on the meaning of EU law.</p><p><strong> </strong></p><p>However, these rights would be enforced in the UK by UK courts and in the EU by EU courts.</p><p>No longer will courts in the UK be able to refer cases to the CJEU, including in cases involving individuals and businesses. And at present, the UK is bound by all CJEU decisions - hundreds of decisions every year which have direct effect in the UK, whether the case originated in the UK or not. This will no longer be the case.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Daventry answering member printed Chris Heaton-Harris grouped question UIN 164932 question first answered 25/07/2018 15:53:59 answering member 3977 label Biography information for Chris Heaton-Harris

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 25/07/2018 answer text <p>The proposed role of the Joint Committee is set out in Chapter 4 of the White Paper. It will be responsible for the functioning of the overarching institutional framework, which will encompass most of our agreements with the EU. It will do so through regular and structured dialogue, and by making decisions in order to manage any issues, and mitigate any disputes that might arise, including where significant divergences in interpretation had been identified.</p><p><strong> </strong></p><p>If a dispute were to arise due to a significant divergence, a formal dispute could be raised in the Joint Committee. In some areas, it may be escalated to independent arbitration if a resolution cannot be reached in the Joint Committee.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Daventry answering member printed Chris Heaton-Harris grouped question UIN 164929 164930 question first answered 25/07/2018 15:52:33 answering member 3977 label Biography information for Chris Heaton-Harris
