Our priority is to ensure continuity, and we recognise the need to promote stability for business and individuals.</p><p> </p><p>To fully convert EU law into UK law and provide maximum certainty and continuity as we leave the EU, the EU (Withdrawal) Bill will, subject to Parliamentary approval, incorporate into UK law the directly effective rights and obligations in the EU treaties and related international agreements which are already available in our domestic law. The Bill also gives ministers a temporary power to make regulations to prevent or remedy breaches of international obligations arising from withdrawal.</p><p> </p><p>In addition, the Department for Exiting the European Union, in conjunction with other Departments, is working with our international partners to identify the full range of international agreements that will be impacted by our exit from the EU, including mixed agreements. The Government’s EU exit legislative programme is designed to cater for the full range of negotiated and non-negotiated outcomes, including for international agreements.</p> answering member constituency Worcester answering member printed Mr Robin Walker question first answered 22/12/2017 14:54:50 answering member 4091 label Biography information for Mr Robin Walker

	uin	10392
	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 09/10/2017 answer text <p>The UK has a longstanding tradition of ensuring our rights and liberties are protected domestically and of fulfilling our international human rights obligations. The Charter of Fundamental Rights (the Charter) only applies to Member States when acting within the scope of EU law. The Charter did not create any new rights. Instead it was intended to catalogue the rights that already existed in EU law, and the bill sets out how this underlying law is being converted into UK law at the point we exit the EU. Therefore it is no longer appropriate, nor will it make sense in the context of the UK's exit from the EU, to retain the Charter in UK law.</p> answering member constituency Worcester answering member printed Mr Robin Walker question first answered 09/10/2017 09:20:53 answering member 4091 label Biography information for Mr Robin Walker

The Government will also bring forward legislation in the next session that, when enacted, will repeal the European Communities Act 1972 on the day we leave the EU. This ‘Great Repeal Bill’ will end the authority of EU law and return power to the UK. The Bill will transpose current EU law into domestic law, while allowing for amendments to take account of the future negotiated UK-EU relationship.</p> answering member constituency Worcester answering member printed Mr Robin Walker question first answered 21/10/2016 09:53:16 answering member 4091 label Biography information for Mr Robin Walker
