'What is EU Relations Law? The Legal Ecosystem of Brexit': Monckton-CELS webinar

The United Kingdom’s withdrawal from the European Union is of immense political and economic significance. But it also amounts to a legal transformation both internally within the UK and externally in the UK’s relationship with the EU and other countries. A complex legal ecosystem is emerging that draws upon EU law, international law, UK and devolved law in fashioning a set of rules and principles that manage the phenomenon of Brexit. The aim of this webinar is to introduce the salient and novel features of this body of law that we term “EU Relations Law”. Chair: Professor Kenneth Armstrong - University of Cambridge Speaker 1: Jack Williams – Monckton Chambers: 'What is EU Relations Law?' Speaker 2: George Peretz QC - Monckton Chambers: 'Key Aspects of the Withdrawal Agreement and Protocol on Ireland/Northern Ireland' Speaker 3: Professor Alison Young - University of Cambridge: 'Key Aspects of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 and the European Union (Withdrawal Agreement) Act 2020' Speaker 4: Professor Kenneth Armstrong – University of Cambridge: 'The Future Relationship – What Type of Agreement (if any?)'

Om Podcasten

The Centre for European Legal Studies (CELS) at the Faculty of Law, University of Cambridge, runs a series of lunchtime seminars during the Michaelmas and Lent Terms. These seminars provide a platform for the presentation of new ideas by leading scholars from inside and outside the University. The lunchtime seminars address topical issues of European Union Law and Comparative Law, with a view to using collective debate as a forum for developing and disseminating ideas, and producing high quality research publications which contribute to an understanding of major issues in the European Union. There is a close link between the CELS Lunchtime Seminar series and the Cambridge Yearbook of European Legal Studies (CYELS). Papers generated from most of these seminars are published as articles in the CYELS. Video recordings of the seminars are made available via podcast, and videos on YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLy4oXRK6xgzGUiTnOrTDiD0SfIbGj2W-x).
