EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations, which come into force on exit day revoke Regulation (EU) 2015/1843 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 6 October 2015 laying down Union procedures in the field of the common commercial policy in order to ensure the exercise of the Union’s rights under international trade rules, in particular those established under the auspices of the World Trade Organization (OJ No L 272, 16.10.15, p. 1) (“The Trade Barriers Regulation”). This EU Regulation describes how EU businesses and Member States can raise concerns with EU institutions about barriers to trade in third country markets.

The effect of these Regulations is that the EU procedure for raising trade barrier concerns and having these considered by the EU institutions no longer applies to UK businesses.

An impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument as neither The Trade Barriers Regulation nor this instrument regulate or deregulate business.
