European Communities Act 1972 (Repeal) Bill

[As Introduced]
A
BILL
to

This bill would repeal (cancel) the European Communities Act 1972, which was the law that allowed the EU to make rules that UK courts had to follow. Passing this bill would remove that legal connection and give the UK complete control over its own laws without EU influence.

Presented by Mr Douglas Carswell.
