European Union (Amendment) Act 2008

[As Introduced]
A
BILL
to

This Act allows the UK government to update and change certain laws to keep in line with new agreements made by the European Union. It's mainly a technical law that makes it easier for the government to adjust UK rules when EU rules change, rather than needing a new Act of Parliament every time.
