answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 05/07/2022 answer text <p>The REUL dashboard presents an authoritative catalogue of REUL, not a complete list of REUL. To ensure the integrity of the data published, Defra undertook a quality assurance process. In the case of retained law relating to habitats, this information completed the quality assurance process only after Cabinet Office’s deadline for publication, so was not able to be included in the initial data. When the dashboard is next updated, this legislation will be added to the data set.</p> answering member printed Lord Goldsmith of Richmond Park question first answered 05/07/2022 16:24:01 answering member 4062 label Biography information for Lord Goldsmith of Richmond Park
