Note: This audio mentions the effect of European Union (EU) law on the law of the United Kingdom.
At the time of writing (June 2020), the United Kingdom is no longer a member state of the European Union. Following its withdrawal from the EU on 31 January 2020, the UK is in a transition period, during which EU law continues to apply throughout the United Kingdom.
The transition period is currently scheduled to end on 31 December 2020, but this date may be changed. It is unlikely that, in the period immediately following the end of the transition period, there will be many significant changes to UK law.
