    European Union agencies must be based in the European Union. As the United Kingdom has notified the European Council under Article 50 of the Treaty on European Union of its intention to leave the Union, it is necessary to move the two United Kingdom-based Agencies to other locations within the Union's territory. Agencies cannot be located outside the territory to which their competences apply. The United Kingdom will have no say when it comes to the location of the EU Agencies.
    Odd, that there's only 1 result, ever...... and only published post-brexit.....

      Do try to engage your brain in some critical thinking around this. For example look at:

      https://europa.eu/european-union/abo...ed-agencies_en

      What are the decentralised agencies?
      These agencies have been set up by the EU to perform technical and scientific tasks that help the EU institutions implement policies and take decisions. They are spread across the EU.
      Now deduce what that means.

        But that's not right, boohoo, you re searching for different words to the ones Bean uses. Of course you get answers, he's not interested in that, only in that when he searches he doesn't get answers, so it's the EU's fault.

          Try this link:

          https://www.politico.eu/article/brex...use-of-brexit/

          Specifically, this paragraph:

          it is commonly assumed that the headquarters of a European agency shall be hosted by an EU member country. Prime Minister Theresa May’s insistence that the U.K. would leave the single market and EU jurisdiction removed any doubt because membership of the agencies is governed by EU laws.
          In other words, the need for moving is based upon the UK's insistence that no foreign laws or jurisdiction shall apply within the UK.

            That's just a press release, try actually looking at EU regulations and so on which you can find quite easily (they tend to be in PDF format which is why Google probably doesn't always index them)
            Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

              And another set of laws which will affect UK businesses:

              REACH - Chemicals - Environment - European Commission

                Liam wants a chlorinated chicken REACHAROUND as part of the UK/US trade deal.

                  Interesting point from the link you quoted;
                  "Although there is no specific law or treaty that states an EU agency cannot be outside the EU"

                  https://www.politico.eu/pro/former-e...-agency-in-uk/

                  but yes, they seem to point to ECJ as the salient point there - a shame, as if we stayed in the EEA it would be moot

                  See above, but for avoidance of doubt wrt your post - it is a statement, on the current situation of the location of the agencies. (Doesn't say they must be etc...)
                  HTH
                  (You may not have followed this whole thread, but Needs vs Wants is central to it)

                  See above, boohoo - you couldn't find a link for days and instead prattled on without understanding the difference between 'need' and 'want' and now you think that link is a silver bullet?

                  Meridian has posted a silver bullet link though.

                    The evidence in incontrovertible, as seen in this thread.
                    When you fell out of the stupid tree, you not only hit all the branches on the way down, but you climbed up again and did it all over again.
                    Is your obsession with pedantry because you're autistic, mentally ill or thick as mince?
                    Or all 3?
                    Hard Brexit now!

                      "For days" I've shown that it's the UK that voted to leave and the UK made the choice, not the EU, but you refused to grasp that. Then when you see links to the EU's own website, you ignore them, choosing to read a media report rather than the EU document that states (quite clearly) that the EU agencies are found in EU member states.

                      Trying to twist that to say "but it doesn't specifically specify that they cannot be found outside EU member states", you might as well change your argument to say "it doesn't say that the earth is not flat, therefore the EU says the earth is flat".

                      You need to test your logic, cause it really is flawed.
