EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM TO
THE UK STATISTICS (AMENDMENT ETC.) (EU EXIT) REGULATIONS 2021
2021 No. [XXXX]
1. Introduction
1.1 This explanatory memorandum (“EM”) has been prepared by the Statistics Board, known as the UK Statistics Authority (‘the Authority’), and is laid before Parliament by the Cabinet Office by Act.
1.2 This memorandum contains information for the Sifting Committees.
2. Purpose of the instrument
2.1 The purpose of this instrument is to address deficiencies in retained EU law relating to statistics arising from the withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the European Union. It is made under the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 (“the 2018 Act”) and the European Union (Withdrawal Agreement) Act 2020 (“the 2020 Act”).
2.2It follows the UK Statistics (Amendment etc.) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019 (“the 2019 Regulations”) which revoked statistics related retained EU law no longer relevant to the UK. This instrument revokes further retained EU law, omits related points from Annex XXI to the EEA agreement and amends legislation in consequence of the 2020 Act.
3. Matters of special interest to Parliament
Matters of special interest to the Sifting Committees
3.1 This instrument is being laid for sifting by the Sifting Committees.
3.2 Part 3 of this instrument amends instruments made under section 2(2) of the European Communities Act 1972. The procedural requirements under Paragraph 15 of Schedule 8 to the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 have been complied with.
4. Extent and Territorial Application
4.1 The territorial extent of this instrument is the United Kingdom.
4.2 The territorial application of this instrument is the United Kingdom.
5. European Convention on Human Rights
5.1 HM Paymaster General has made the following statement regarding Human Rights:
“In my view the provisions of the UK Statistics (Amendment etc.) (EU Exit) Regulations 2021 are compatible with the Convention rights.”
6. Legislative Context
6.1 This instrument continues the approach taken in the UK Statistics (Amendment etc.) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019 (“the 2019 Regulations”) which began the process of revoking EU law on statistics which is no longer relevant to the UK following withdrawal from the European Union.
2
CO/EM/2021.1
6.2 The legislative context with respect to retained EU law, and the powers under which this instrument is made, may be found in the European Union Withdrawal Act 2018 and the European Union (Withdrawal Agreement) Act 2020. In particular, section 2 of the 2018 Act provides that legislation made under section 2(2) of the European Communities Act 1972, and certain law relating to the EU, is “EU-derived domestic legislation”; section 3 incorporates certain EU regulations and decisions, including all those included in the Schedule to this instrument, into domestic law as “direct EU legislation”; section 6(7) defines “retained EU law” to include both EU-derived domestic legislation and direct EU legislation; and section 8 provides that a Minister of the Crown may by regulations make such provision as the Minister considers appropriate to prevent, remedy or mitigate any failure of retained EU law to operate effectively or any other deficiency in retained EU law arising from the withdrawal of the UK from the EU. Part 4 of this instrument revokes most of the remaining retained direct EU legislation in relation to statistics, including legislation that has come into force following the 2019 Regulations.
6.3 This instrument is also made under section 41(1) of the European Union (Withdrawal Agreement) Act 2020 which provides that a Minister of the Crown may by regulations make such provision as the Minister considers appropriate in consequence of this Act. Parts 2 and 3 of this instrument amend legislation which had originally been amended by the 2019 Regulations to refer to “exit day” to account for references to EU regulations and standards within that legislation. Those amendments had the effect of ensuring the relevant EU regulations and standards were to be read as having effect in the EU versions of the law immediately before exit day. This instrument substitutes “exit day” with “IP completion day” in consequence of the 2020 Act.
6.4 Council Regulation (EC) No 2223/96 (“Regulation 2223/96”) is to be revoked by the instrument, however, a saving provision has been included in the instrument. This ensures that the reference to “other monetary financial institution” in section 17(3B)(a) (power to obtain information) of the Bank of England Act 1998, which refers to the definition in paragraph 2.48 of Annex A to Regulation 2223/96, is to be read as reference to that paragraph as it had effect immediately before Regulation 2223/96 was revoked.
7. Policy background
What is being done and why?
7.1 The purpose of the instrument is to revoke retained EU statistics law. EU Member States are subject to a large EU statute book relating to the production of EU statistics. Most EU statistics law require the UK to collect data, produce statistics and transmit these data to the EU for the purpose of producing EU statistics. The EU statistics law set timescales for surveys, reference periods, quality criteria, classifications and standards that must be used for EU statistics. As EU statistics law only concern EU statistics, they do not confer any powers for the production of UK statistics. The UK statistical system is run under a separate existing legal framework, covered under UK legislation. Revoking these laws would have the practical effect of all statistics currently produced according to European Regulations reverting to the UK’s national framework for official statistics, which is the Statistics and Registration Service Act 2007 (SRSA 2007) and its Code of Practice for Statistics. As the UK does not need these regulations to continue to produce statistical data, the EU statistics law are
3
CO/EM/2021.1
deficient and redundant. The EU statistics law are surplus to the UK legal framework and would confer a burden on the UK to continue to provide data.
Explanations
What did any law do before the changes to be made by this instrument?
7.2 Annexed to this EM is a table setting out in more detail what the relevant instruments did before IP completion day.
7.3 It is important to emphasise that this law exists independently of, and does not override, the UK’s independent domestic statistical system. European statistics are only those necessary for the performance of the EU’s activities, and Member States retain sole competence to produce statistics as they see fit for national purposes, including where those statistics overlap with EU statistics law. The production, dissemination and regulation of UK statistics operates under the UK’s existing statistical framework, the basis of which lies in the SRSA 2007. This Act established the Authority, whose objective is to promote and safeguard the production and publication of official statistics that serve the public good. That law includes provision for the Authority to establish and monitor proper statistical practices (ss.8, 10-16), standards and classifications (s.9) and to publish statistics (ss.20-22).
Why is it being changed?
7.4 EU statistics law is deficient because, amongst other things, it makes provision for, or in connection with, arrangements which involve the EU, and which are no longer appropriate. This law does not operate effectively because the majority of its obligations attach to Member States (which no longer include the UK).
7.5 Most of this law requires transmission of statistics by the Authority to Eurostat. The UK no longer forms a part of the European Statistical System (ESS). It is clearly inappropriate and unnecessary for the Authority to continue to be obliged to send information to Eurostat, even assuming that it remained technically and legally possible for Eurostat to receive it. This instrument does not explicitly prohibit the UK from sharing data with Eurostat, but it does remove the legal requirement for the UK to do this.
7.6 Where this law expressly or implicitly requires the UK to collect or produce certain statistics to certain standards and classifications, this requirement is inextricable from those transmission requirements. Eurostat operates under a federal system: it relies on the national statistical institutes to coordinate collection of data on its behalf so that it may produce statistics relevant to the EU. That in turn requires harmonised standards as to what, when and how national statistical institutes collect the data they send to Eurostat. Only in this way can Eurostat obtain consistent data that it can compile to produce meaningful, comparable results. These standards are therefore rooted in the nature of the ESS and provide a basis for diverse statistical systems to work together. Now that the UK no longer forms part of the ESS, and is no longer obliged to send data to Eurostat, it is appropriate to remove the requirements on the UK to produce statistics in compliance with ESS standards.
What will it now do?
7.7 The Authority and other public authorities will continue to collect, regulate and disseminate statistics under the UK’s domestic statistics framework. It should be noted that the Code of Practice for Statistics safeguards the continuity of statistics by
4
CO/EM/2021.1
requiring producers to consider the impact of changes in the circumstances and context of a data source and ensure that any change should be clearly explained to users.
7.8 The Cabinet Office has laid this instrument, prepared by the Authority, on behalf of all government departments, in preference to each department laying an instrument for the statistical obligations for which it is responsible. This approach ensures consistency and saves considerable Parliamentary time.
8. European Union Withdrawal and Future Relationship
8.1 This instrument is being made using the power in section 8 of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 in order to address failures of retained EU law to operate effectively or other deficiencies arising from the withdrawal of the UK from the European Union. In accordance with the requirements of that Act the Minister has made the relevant statements as detailed in Part 2 of Annex 1 to this Explanatory Memorandum.
8.2 Alongside the EU (Withdrawal) Act 2018 powers the instrument is also being made under section 41(1) of the European Withdrawal (Agreement) Act 2020 to make provision in consequence of this Act to replace “exit day” with “IP completion day” in legislation previously amended as a result of the withdrawal of the UK from the EU.
9. Consolidation
9.1 As this instrument makes targeted amendments to particular domestic laws and revokes relevant retained EU law, consolidation is not appropriate.
10. Consultation outcome
10.1 The Authority has consulted government departments on the scope of this instrument and how the repeal of these retained EU laws will affect the Government Statistical Service, the cross-government network led by the National Statistician that seeks to provide high quality statistics, analysis and advice to help Britain make better decisions. As outlined above, in the majority of cases departments agreed that existing powers under statute and common law, and supervision and standard-setting by the Authority under the 2007 Act, would ensure the same statistical service could continue to be provided.
10.2 This instrument partly falls within Welsh, Scottish and Northern Ireland devolved competence. Throughout the planning and drafting of this instrument, officials from the Authority have maintained a regular dialogue with the Chief Statisticians in the devolved administrations to consult them on the instrument. As part of this consultation, complete lists of the retained EU law to be revoked were shared with officials in each devolved administration, along with policy advice regarding the scope of the proposed changes. The Minister for the Constitution and Devolution has written to the devolved administrations. The Welsh Minister for Finance and Local Government, the Scottish Deputy First Minister and the Economy and the Northern Irish Minister of Finance have confirmed the Welsh and Scottish Government’s and Northern Ireland Executive consent to this instrument respectively.

CO/EM/2021.1
11. Guidance
11.1 There is no guidance associated with this instrument. The Authority publish extensive guidance on statistical standards and classifications in accordance with their statutory role.
12. Impact
12.1 As was considered to be the case with the 2019 Regulations, there is no, or no significant, impact on business, charities or voluntary bodies. The revoked law only affects the technical framework within which public authorities operate and has no direct impact on business, charities or voluntary bodies. In this respect, it is the domestic statistics framework that grants public authorities power to require information from persons, including businesses, in certain circumstances. That domestic framework is unaffected by this instrument. The information public authorities decide to require (and therefore the burden on businesses) is determined by a number of factors with respect to use, demand and statistical and legal requirements. It is true that one of those factors is whether information is required for sending to Eurostat, and so it is theoretically possible that removing such obligations could indirectly impact on certain businesses (by leading to a reduction in certain burdens). However, any such effects would arise from those public authorities’ decisions, not from this instrument. Moreover, a high degree of continuity is expected such that any change in burden would be negligible.
12.2 As was considered to be the case with the 2019 Regulations, there is no, or no significant, impact on the public sector. We assess the change in burden for collection and preparation to be indirect and minimal. We assess the change resulting from ceasing to transmit data to Eurostat to be minimal because the increased need for public authorities to send data to certain international organisations (which Eurostat presently does on the EU’s behalf) is expected to balance out any burden reduction.
12.3 An Impact Assessment has not been prepared for this instrument because of the low level of impact on businesses and the public sector.
13. Regulating small business
13.1 The legislation does not apply to activities that are undertaken by small businesses.
14. Monitoring & review
14.1 No specific monitoring arrangements are needed.
14.2 As this instrument is made under the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 no review clause is required.
15. Contact
15.1 Matthew Ford at the UK Statistics Authority Telephone: 01328 447915 or email: matthew.ford@statistics.gov.uk can be contacted with any queries regarding the instrument.
15.2 Robert Bumpstead at the UK Statistics Authority can confirm that this Explanatory Memorandum meets the required standard.

Part 2
Statements required under the European Union (Withdrawal) 2018 Act or the European Union (Future Relationship) Act 2020
1. Sifting statement(s)
1.1 HM Paymaster General has made the following statement regarding use of legislative powers in the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018:
“In my view the UK Statistics (Amendment etc.) (EU Exit) Regulations 2021 should be subject to annulment in pursuance of a resolution of either House of Parliament (i.e. the negative procedure)”.
1.2 This is the case because similarly to the 2019 Regulations, this instrument revokes deficient retained EU law that fundamentally – including in its provisions on standards and production – concerns transmission of data to Eurostat. These regulations essentially remove redundant EU institutional law that it is inappropriate to retain now that the UK has left the EU. Accordingly, the negative procedure is appropriate.
2. Appropriateness statement
2.1 HM Paymaster General has made the following statement regarding use of legislative powers in the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018:
“In my view the UK Statistics (Amendment etc.) (EU Exit) Regulations 2021 does no more than is appropriate”.
2.2 This is the case because with respect to the revocation of retained EU law because it revokes law that provides for, or is inextricably linked to, the transmission of data to Eurostat; because this is the approach most consistent with the domestic UK statistics framework; and because it is more appropriate than retention and correction of that law, something that would entail a highly onerous process for maintaining the law, risk undermining the role of the Authority, and not substantially serve any public interest.
3. Good reasons
3.1 HM Paymaster General has made the following statement regarding use of legislative powers in the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018:
“In my view there are good reasons for the provisions in this instrument, and I have concluded they are a reasonable course of action”.
3.2 These are as the UK has left the EU without an agreement to continue to participate in the European Statistical System, it is reasonable to revoke retained EU legislation which would impose unnecessary and deficient obligations on the UK to transmit statistics to Eurostat, together with the collection, standard and classification obligations entailed by those transmission obligations. Revocation would remove these obligations, maintaining the integrity of the UK’s domestic statistics collection framework and the position of the Authority.
10
CO/EM/2021.1
4. Equalities
4.1 HM Paymaster General has made the following statement:
“The draft instrument does not amend, repeal or revoke a provision or provisions in the Equality Act 2006 or the Equality Act 2010 or subordinate legislation made under those Acts.
4.2 HM Paymaster has made the following statement regarding use of legislative powers in the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018:
“In relation to the [draft] instrument, I have had due regard to the need to eliminate discrimination, harassment, victimisation and any other conduct that is prohibited by or under the Equality Act 2010.”
4.3 Little or no impact on equalities is expected.
5. Explanations
5.1 The explanations statement has been made in section 7 of the main body of this explanatory memorandum.
6. Explanations where amending or revoking regulations etc. made under section 2(2) of the European Communities Act 1972
6.1 HM Paymaster General, Rt Hon. Michael Ellis QC MP has made the following statement regarding regulations made under the European Communities Act 1972:
“In my opinion there are good reasons for the UK Statistics (Amendment etc.) (EU Exit) Regulations 2021 to amend the Public Contracts Regulations 2015, the Concession Contracts Regulations 2016 and the Utilities Contracts Regulations 2016 which are being amended. This is because the regulations had originally been amended by the UK Statistics (Amendment etc.) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019 (“the 2019 Regulations”) to account for references to EU regulations and standards within that legislation. The amendments within the 2019 Regulations had the effect of ensuring the relevant EU regulations and standards were to be read as having effect in the EU versions of the EU law immediately before exit day. This instrument substitutes “exit day” with “IP completion day” in consequence of the European Union (Withdrawal Agreement) Act 2020.
6.2 The law relevant to the amendments are the Public Contracts Regulations 2015, the Concession Contracts Regulations 2016 and the Utilities Contracts Regulations 2016. The amendments have no effect on retained EU law as the purpose is to ensure that references to EU law within those regulations reference the EU versions of the EU law immediately before IP completion day.
