Debating the Bill in the House of Commons this week, MPs voted down amendment 15B, ensuring any changes to retained EU law do not dilute environmental protection or breach international agreements, and 42B, ensuring revocation or replacement of secondary retained EU law must first be considered by a sifting committee of MPs. They agreed to an amendment on reporting requirements and approved the appointment of a committee to draw up reasons for rejecting the remaining Lords amendments.
Once both Houses agree on the final text, the Bill can receive Royal Assent. The MPs noted that neither the Senedd Cymru nor the Scottish Parliament has given legislative consent.
