The House of Lords Constitution Committee is taking a wider interest in the Brexit process, inviting contributions on the Repeal Bill's constitutional implications. This inquiry follows the Committee's two reports on the topic, in the latter of which it concluded that the Bill is 'highly complex and convoluted in its drafting and structure', rendering 'scrutiny very difficult' and leaving 'multiple and fundamental constitutional questions…unanswered'. Find links to the reports and inquiry here, deadline for submissions 12th October.
