Proceeding contribution from Matthew Pennycook (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 17 January 2018. It occurred during Debate on bill on European Union (Withdrawal) Bill.


European Union (Withdrawal) Bill

After the transitional period, the ECJ would not be the adjudicator. That would be dealt with as a matter of retained law. My hon. Friend has reinforced a point that I made earlier. We need a level of enhanced protection and the courts need clarity on how to interpret this new category of law, because if they do not have that clarity and certainty, they will be more vulnerable.
