Commentary
This statutory instrument corrects deficiencies in the operation of retained EU law within Euratom Regulation 1493/93 (‘the Regulation’) on the shipment of radioactive substances between EU Member States. The Regulation requires that shipment of radioactive sources between Member States are controlled and documented. On exit day (29 March 2019), the Regulation will automatically become retained EU law under the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 but will be inoperable. This statutory instrument revokes the Regulation and replaces it with similar provisions so that retained deficiencies are fixed and the Regulations can continue to operate as it does now insofar as possible.
Legal Advisers agree with the statement laid by the Welsh Government dated 3 December 2018 regarding the effect of these Regulations.
Legal Advisers do not consider that any significant issues arise under paragraph 8 of the Memorandum on the European Union (Withdrawal) Bill and the Establishment of Common Frameworks in relation to these Regulations.
Legal Advisers have not identified any legal reason to seek a consent motion under Standing Order 30A.10 in relation to these Regulations.
