Question to the Leader of the House:

To ask the Leader of the House, if he will take steps to re-establish a European Scrutiny Committee to scrutinise EU legislation that will apply to (a) the UK and (b) Great Britain.

Any legislation made under the powers in the European Partnership Bill would be scrutinised by Parliament in the usual way.

We will work with Parliament on the arrangements for the scrutiny of any necessary legislation, and the agreement more broadly, as the negotiations progress.
