Abstract

Abstract This chapter provides a critical analysis of the overall Withdrawal Agreement reached between the EU and the UK. The focus for discussion is the post-withdrawal, status quo ‘transition period’—during which, for 11 months after formally leaving the EU, the UK was nevertheless treated as if it were still a Member State for a wide range of purposes. Once that transition period expired, a new set of rules was activated under the Withdrawal Agreement, e.g. on winding-up outstanding UK engagements with EU rules, processes and institutions; and on calculating the UK’s financial settlement towards the EU (the so-called ‘divorce bill’). This chapter also explores the rules on governance, interpretation, dispute settlement and internal legal effects of the Withdrawal Agreement.
