There are three principal elements that make up the Repeal Bill.
The first is repealing the European Communities Act 1972, the historic law that took Britain into the EU.
Second, the Bill will convert all EU law into United Kingdom law to prevent a black legal whole after Brexit. Thousands of European laws, dictats and directives will be turned into UK law before Brexit is completed in mid-2019.
And thirdly, the Bill will create the necessary powers for MPs to change these laws once Britain has left the EU.
