<p>The Government will 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.</p><p>The
Bill will transpose current EU law into domestic law, while allowing for amendments
to take account of the future negotiated UK-EU relationship. Without pre-judging this
future relationship or future decisions Parliament may make, it will give consumers,
workers and businesses as much certainty as possible by maintaining law wherever practicable
and desirable.</p><p>The Government will set out the content of the Bill and its implications
in due course.</p>
