It is a matter of customary international law, by which the UK is bound, that unilateral termination is prohibited outside the terms of a treaty. The Withdrawal Agreement contains no provision regarding termination and therefore, once in force, the UK would not be able unilaterally to terminate it.<\/p>

The Secretary of State has not visited the Port of Dover during his time in position. Ministers in the Department for Exiting the EU with responsibility for ports visited the Port of Dover twice this year. Former Minister Suella Braverman on the 14th May and Minister Chris Heaton-Harris on the 24th August. The Government has secured a deal which takes back control of our laws; it ends the jurisdiction of the CJEU in the UK and instead means our laws being made in our Parliaments, enforced by our courts.<\/p> There will be a limited and clearly defined role for the CJEU as set out in the Withdrawal Agreement.
