European Union (Withdrawal) Bill: Wales
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Wales, pursuant to the Answer of 3 July 2017 to Question 982, for what reason the European Union (Withdrawal) Bill makes no reference to powers set to be devolved to the National Assembly for Wales.
- Answer
-
The European Union (Withdrawal) Bill establishes a transitional arrangement that replicates current EU frameworks in UK law, referred to as retained EU law. The Government is now beginning intensive discussions with the devolved administrations about where common frameworks are needed in the areas covered by the transitional arrangement. Where frameworks are not needed, the Bill provides a mechanism for passing powers to the devolved nations.
