answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 21/11/2022 answer text <p>Retained EU Law, as introduced into UK law through the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 (EUWA), is subject to complex glosses associated with EU legal principles, which confer a special status on retained EU law. This includes the principle of supremacy, which continues to apply in domestic law, and means some retained EU law takes priority over ordinary domestic law, including Acts of Parliament, in the event of conflict. This is no longer appropriate given we have left the EU.</p> answering member constituency Wealden answering member printed Ms Nusrat Ghani question first answered 21/11/2022 17:15:06 answering member 4460 label Biography information for Ms Nusrat Ghani
