EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

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 a failure of retained EU law to operate effectively and other deficiencies (in particular under paragraphs (a) and (g) of section 8(2) of that Act) arising from the withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the European Union.

Section 44(1)(b) of the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (c. 36) provides an absolute exemption to disclosure of information under section 1 of that Act where such disclosure would be “incompatible with any EU obligation”. Regulation 2 amends section 44(1)(b) to substitute the term “retained EU obligation” for “EU obligation”.

An impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument as no, or no significant, impact on the private, voluntary or public sectors is foreseen.

(2)

For the definition of “exit day”, see section 20 of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018.

(3)

2000 c. 36. Section 44(1)(b) was amended by S.I. 2011/1043.
