(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations revoke instruments deriving from EU legislation relating to the Horizon 2020 framework programme for research and innovation which have been retained in domestic law under the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 as retained EU law. The revocations address failures of retained EU law to operate effectively and other deficiencies (in particular under section 8(2)(a) and (d) of that Act) arising from the withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the European Union.
A full impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument as no, or no significant, impact on the private, voluntary or public sector is foreseen. An explanatory memorandum is available alongside this instrument on the Legislation UK website at www.legislation.gov.uk.
