European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018

Environment and Rural Affairs (Amendment) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019

Welcome to the Environment, Climate Change and Land Reform Committee’s 21st meeting in 2019.

Before we move to the first item on the agenda, I remind everyone to switch off mobile phones or put them in silent mode as they can affect the broadcasting system.

Item 1 is to consider a proposal by the Scottish Government to consent to the United Kingdom Government legislating, using the powers under the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018, through the Environment and Rural Affairs (Amendment) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019. Members have no comments on the instrument, so does the committee agree that it does not wish to make any recommendations on it?

Members indicated agreement.
