Speaking in the House of Lords on 20 November 2024

Debate

Product Regulation and Metrology Bill [HL]

Contribution

Amendment 15 is a core amendment. It would drop the definition of “relevant EU law” from the Bill and replace it with a broader definition, one that I have called “relevant foreign law”. This enables what I described just now: it allows us to use regulations that allow the best available sets of rules from a range of countries with high regulatory standards, not just from the European Union.
