Good Law Project seeks judicial review over move to change state aid rules after Brexit without a vote in parliament
A government move to change state aid rules after Brexit without a vote in parliament is being challenged in court, with a legal campaign group warning the manoeuvre could lead to a similar lack of scrutiny in areas such as workers’ rights and environmental protections.
The Good Law Project is seeking a judicial review of the decision to get rid of EU rules about state aid incorporated into UK legislation after Brexit through the use of so-called Henry VIII powers.
