188体育

This instrument is one of a package of statutory instruments that will ensure that legislation governing the UK鈥檚 energy systems will function effectively if the UK leaves the European Union (鈥楨U鈥�) without a withdrawal agreement in place. It amends a range of primary and secondary law, of both domestic and European origin, to address inoperabilities caused by the UK鈥檚 exit from the EU. Most notably this instrument will remove inoperabilities from the Gas Act 1986 and Electricity Act 1989, which apply in Great Britain; the Gas (Northern Ireland) Order 1996 and Electricity (Northern Ireland) Order 1992 which apply in Northern Ireland; and the EU鈥檚 Electricity and Gas Regulations; which together form the legislative core of the UK鈥檚 electricity and gas market regulatory frameworks. In addition, this instrument and several other Acts, Regulations and Orders will remove inoperabilities from related secondary legislation and revoke a number of EU regulations and decisions which will become retained EU law.
