Abstract

Significance They will discuss the UK government’s proposed EU Withdrawal Bill designed to repatriate EU law, which Jones called “a blatant power grab” by London. Impacts Repatriation of EU powers means either Scotland and Wales gain influence over foreign policy or London gains power over devolved matters. Uncertainty for parties doing business with Scotland, especially in areas such as agriculture and fisheries, will increase. As the impact of Brexit becomes clearer, recent Conservative gains in Scotland will be at risk.
