To ask His Majesty's Government, further to the Retained EU Law Parliamentary Report
for the period June 2023–December 2023, published on 22 January, what is the departmental
breakdown for the following categories set out in Table 2 ('HMG roadmap for the stock
of REUL'): (1) 'Propose to revoke in 2024', (2) 'Propose to revoke in 2025–26', (3)
'Propose to reform in 2024', and (4) 'Propose to reform in 2025–26'.
<p>To meet our obligations under Section 17 of the Retained EU Law Revocation and
Reform (REUL) Act, the first REUL report included a comprehensive list of REUL which
has been reformed and revoked and detailed our plans for forthcoming reform SIs. In
addition, and to provide Parliament with further insight, the report provided an indication
of Government's future roadmap for REUL reform for the whole period to June 2026,
informed by reporting from government departments to the Department for Business and
Trade (i.e Table 2). In many cases the reforms in the roadmap for future years, are
still under development and so the full details of these reforms have not been included
in this first report. As details of future reforms are finalised, the Government will
provide updates every 6 months via future reports alongside updating the REUL dashboard.</p>
