"Brex1t blow as ministers find 1,400 extra EU laws to repeal

'Bonfire of red tape' plans suffer setback as hundreds more European Union regulations discovered

Government plans for a bonfire of EU red tape after Brexit have been dealt another blow after it was discovered it may need to repeal 1,400 more laws than previously thought.

Ministers working with the National Archives found the extra legal text, which takes the grand total of retained EU law on the UK statute book to 3,800 laws rather than 2,400.

Thousands of EU laws were transposed into UK law, with often only minimal changes, when Brexit took legal effect at 11pm on December 31. The move prevented legal gaps in a wide range of regulations after Brexit.

The Government wants to have revised or repealed all those laws by the end of 2023.

But officials have warned that it will be a bureaucratic nightmare because each will require legal advice and consultation with business and other groups, the Financial Times reported.

Grant Shapps, the Business Secretary, is keen to slow down the review because it will need hundreds of extra staff, according to the FT."
