The Great Repeal Bill: White Paper published

The Great Repeal Bill White Paper sets out the government’s proposals for ensuring a functioning statute book once the UK has left the European Union.

It provides the detail about:

• the repeal of the European Communities Act 1972
• how EU law will be converted into UK law
• how corrections will be made to the statute book, to ensure the law continues to function once we have left the EU

As the UK leaves the European Union, find out about the government’s Plan for Britain.
