answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 28/11/2018 answer text <p>We have provided for a time-limited implementation period precisely to give businesses and citizens certainty. This means that common rules will remain in place until the end of the period, allowing businesses to trade on the same terms as now up until the end of 2020.</p><p>It takes on average two years for significant new rules to pass through the EU, and it is therefore very unlikely that significant legislation will pass during the implementation period.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Spelthorne answering member printed Kwasi Kwarteng question first answered 28/11/2018 11:04:55 answering member 4134 label Biography information for Kwasi Kwarteng

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 03/12/2018 answer text <p>Article 129 of the Withdrawal Agreement sets out how the UK and EU should cooperate under the European Union’s External Action, including in international organisations, during the Implementation Period. It applies to all international organisations where the UK and EU are actors. This includes the UN and its agencies, and other international bodies, such as OECD and OSCE. The UK will remain an active and effective international player. We will continue to have a strong independent voice in the UN as a P5 member, and across a range of other UN bodies, agencies and in other international fora. The Withdrawal Agreement will not change this position.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Daventry answering member printed Chris Heaton-Harris question first answered 03/12/2018 15:14:15 answering member 3977 label Biography information for Chris Heaton-Harris

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 27/11/2018 answer text <p>Under the Withdrawal Agreement, if there is a dispute which involves a question on the interpretation of EU law, the panel will not decide on that question, but request the CJEU to give a ruling on it. It will, however, still be for the arbitration panel to rule on the dispute itself.</p><p>Under the EU Treaties, the CJEU is the only body which can deliver interpretations of EU law which bind the EU and its Member States. If the arbitration panel was empowered to interpret EU law and bind the EU and its Member States to this interpretation, it would be considered unlawful by the CJEU and prevent the EU from being able to sign up to such a provision.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Spelthorne answering member printed Kwasi Kwarteng question first answered 27/11/2018 11:14:27 answering member 4134 label Biography information for Kwasi Kwarteng
