answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 13/12/2018 answer text <p>During the time-limited implementation period, EU law will continue to apply in the UK subject to the terms set out in the Withdrawal Agreement. After the implementation period, all laws in the UK will be passed by our elected representatives in Belfast, Cardiff, Edinburgh and London. The Political Declaration recognises that the UK may choose to align with the EU’s rules in relevant areas to facilitate trade in goods or security cooperation.</p><p> </p><p>In the unlikely event that the backstop were to come into effect, a small fraction of EU rules applying today would apply in Northern Ireland and EU rules on state aid would apply in the UK. However, as the Withdrawal Agreement and the Political Declaration make absolutely clear, we do not want or expect the backstop to be needed - and even if it ever were ever to come into effect, it would be strictly temporary. The Official Journal of the European Union publishes upcoming EU legislation for implementation.

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 13/12/2018 answer text <p>The Gambling Commission published its advice to government alongside the government’s consultation on society lotteries reform. The advice reported that to date, society lotteries have not had a statistically significant effect on National Lottery sales. The consultation presented the Government’s preferred options and sought views on legislative options to reform the society lottery sector.

I hope to formally respond in the first half of next year.</p> answering member constituency Eastleigh answering member printed Mims Davies question first answered 13/12/2018 17:57:01 answering member 4513 label Biography information for Mims Davies
