Recommendation 14

We therefore request that the Government gives an early indication of the extent to which it expects to use its power under Clause 17 of the Retained EU Law (Revocation and Reform) Bill as introduced, and of the likely volume and rate of flow of draft legislative reform orders, so that the Committee can assess whether its working practices will need to change substantially. At the very least, the Committee would need early warning from the Government of each impending draft legislative reform order, in order to ensure effective and prompt scrutiny.
