The House of Lords European Union Committee has today drawn the
‘special attention’ of the House of Lords
to two Brexit-related agreements: a trade
agreement between the UK and Israel, and an agreement
with the Swiss Confederation

The Committee has also highlighted

the various agreements with Switzerland, which
has made scrutiny more difficult, and
the continuing need for consultation with the
devolved administrations.
Today’s report is the seventh of the EU
Committee’s reports on Brexit-related treaties, which
have been laid before Parliament prior to
ratification.
