<p>Until we have left the EU, the UK will remain a member of the EU with all the rights
and obligations that membership entails. EU Regulation 426/2016 is directly applicable
in the United Kingdom and will enter into force on 21 April 2018. The Government is
preparing draft legislation to provide for enforcement of the Regulation, and the
European Commission will continue to fulfil its role with regard to notified bodies
until we leave the European Union.</p><p>The Repeal Bill will convert directly-applicable
EU law into UK law, and provide a power to correct parts of the law that no longer
work. The Government is currently considering how to ensure functions currently carried
out by the European Commission with regard to UK notified bodies, continue in an appropriate
way.</p>
