The following amendments have been
tabled for consideration by the Speaker when the Bill has its
Second Reading. As yet, no date has been announced, so this is
unlikely to take place before the summer recess.
EUROPEAN UNION (WITHDRAWAL) BILL: SECOND READING
That this House declines to give a Second Reading to the European
Union (Withdrawal) Bill because it contains no commitment to the
transfer of devolved competencies coming back from the European
Union to the devolved administrations; fails to provide for a
unilateral guarantee on the rights of EU nationals in the UK and
is not accompanied by any economic analysis by the Government of
the full implications of withdrawal from the single market.
That this House declines to give a Second Reading to the European
Union (Withdrawal) Bill because it makes no provision for the
transfer of devolved competencies coming back from the European
Union to the devolved administrations; allows the UK Government
to make changes to both UK and Welsh legislation without
scrutiny; withdraws the UK from the Single Market, the Customs
Union and its associated frameworks without any indication as to
their replacement and is not accompanied by any analysis by the
Government of the implications of the UK’s withdrawal from EU
Agencies.
