EXPLANATORY NOTE
These Regulations are made in exercise of the powers conferred by section 8(1) of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 (c. 16) in order to address failures of retained EU law to operate effectively and other deficiencies (in particular under section 8(2)(a) and (c)) arising from the withdrawal of the UK from the European Union.
The Regulations revoke legislation relating to mutual assistance in relation to the application of the law on customs and agricultural matters.
