Retained EU Law (Revocation and Reform) Bill Lord Callanan moved that the bill be now read a second time. Then Lord Fox moved, as an amendment to the motion that the bill be now read a second time, at end insert “but regrets that the Bill (1) weakens the scrutiny role of Parliament and proposes unparalleled delegated powers be given to Ministers of the Crown, (2) does not respect the constitutional role of the devolved administrations, (3) sets an arbitrary deadline for the revocation of many hundreds of laws protecting the United Kingdom’s high environmental standards, as well as employment and consumer rights and safety standards, with no indication of the rules that will replace them, and (4) imposes a cliff-edge at the end of 2023 that will create uncertainty for people and businesses”. The debate on Lord Fox's amendment was adjourned.
