BEAMA WRITE TO ALOK SHARMA MP ON HOW REGUALTORY COOPERATION COULD BE ACHIEVED
20 May 2020
EURIS has produced a paper with outline ideas for how regulatory cooperation structures could operate between the UK and EU for technical products, with full industry support. This paper outlines the formation of a proposed Standing Industry and Government UK/EU regulatory committee/sub-committee to be established for Regulations affecting the electrical and mechanical manufacturing industry. For the UK this would assess any proposed EU legislation, or amendments to legislation, and recommend to UK Government whether these should lead to amendments in UK legislation or the creation of equivalent Regulations.
In our letter to the Secretary of State we outline our feedback to the draft legal text on Good Regulatory Practice, and our dissapointment in Article 25.10 on Regulatory Cooperation, which as currently drafted presents a low level of ambition for such cooperation between the EU and UK on regulatory matters. We are presenting our proposal as a means to establish stronger regulatory cooperation to ensure technical barriers to trade are not unecessarily created.
