These Regulations are made in exercise of the powers conferred by section 8(1)(b) of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 (c. 16) in order to address a deficiency (in particular under section 8(2)(g)) arising from the withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the European Union.
These Regulations amend a reference to “a Member State” in the heading of Annex 2 to Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2017/2287, for consistency with amendments made to that regulation by the Control of Mercury (Amendment) (EU Exit) Regulations 2020 (S.I. 2020/1620).
