Recommendation
UK Withdrawal from the European Union (Continuity) (Scotland) Act 2021 (“the Continuity Act”)
Recommendation · verbatim
The Committee also notes that the ‘keeping pace power’ under section 1(1) of the 2021 Continuity Act is set to expire in March 2027. This could be extended until 2031 if regulations to that end are passed by affirmative procedure. We, therefore, recommend that our successor may wish to carry out some work early in Session 7 in relation to the review of the ‘keeping pace power’.
