The Government has undertaken extensive work to identify the primary legislation essential to deliver our exit from the EU in different scenarios.

Much of this legislation is already in place, for example The Taxation (Cross-border Trade) Act, The Nuclear Safeguards Act and the Haulage Permits and Trailer Registration Act, and a number of important statutory instruments.

The Government is confident that we will have all the necessary legislation in place by exit day.
