Speaking in the House of Lords on 20 November 2024

Debate

Product Regulation and Metrology Bill [HL]

Contribution

This provision provides that, since EU regulated goods may legally be sold in Northern Ireland already and, therefore, under the internal market Act may be sold legally anywhere else in the UK already. I still do not entirely understand. Perhaps the Minister can explain why it is at all necessary to have these further provisions to recognise EU standards, given that the relevant legal basis already seems to exist, arguably in a wider way than envisaged in the Bill.
