UK: The Social Entrepreneurship Funds (Amendment) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019

The Social Entrepreneurship Funds (Amendment) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019 were made on Wednesday (the 20th) and come into force on exit day: see here (pdf). At the time of making this post, the Regulations were only available in pdf and an explanatory memorandum had not been published; the accompanying impact assessment was, however, available: see here (pdf).

The purpose of the Regulations, to quote directly from the short explanatory note accompanying them, is "...to address failures of retained EU law to operate effectively and other deficiencies arising from the withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the European Union ... They amend Regulation (EU) No. 346/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council on European social entrepreneurship funds".

Update (22 February 2019) - the explanatory memorandum has been published: see here (pdf).
