Question to the Department for Exiting the European Union :
To ask Her Majesty's Government, following the translation of EU legislation into UK domestic law, what plans they have to ensure that subsequent judgments of the Court of Justice of the European Union are taken into account in that translated law.
As provided for in the EU (Withdrawal) Act, UK courts and tribunals will no longer be bound by judgments by the Court of Justice of the European Union after we leave the EU. However, section 6(2) of the Act provides that our domestic courts and tribunals can take into account anything done by the EU, the Court of Justice of the European Union, or any other EU entity after we leave the EU, if it is relevant to any matter before them. The Act’s position reflects the same approach UK courts and tribunals currently take to judgments made in other foreign jurisdictions.
