Written statement made by Steve Baker (Conservative) on Tuesday, 3 July 2018 in the House of Commons, on behalf of the Department for Exiting the European Union.
Method of publication for certain statements under the EU (Withdrawal) Act
The Withdrawal Act requires statements of the “good reasons” for creation of and penalties for any criminal offences under the key powers in the Act. On 25 April the Baroness-in-waiting, Baroness Goldie, committed that these statements would be made available to Parliament before any SI which creates a criminal offence is laid before Parliament. The mechanism for ensuring this has been agreed and, in line with that commitment, I am making this statement to inform members that those statements will be deposited, before the SI is laid, in the Libraries of both houses where they will form a document series deposited under the commitment in this statement.
