Remaining implementation of the Withdrawal Agreement
Article 4 requires that the provisions of the Withdrawal Agreement and the provisions of
Union law made applicable by the Withdrawal Agreement produce “the same legal effects” in
the UK as those which they produce within the EU and its Member States. In broad terms
(and subject to the provisions of Article 4 itself), the intention is that the Withdrawal
Agreement and the provisions of EU law applied by the Withdrawal Agreement have the
same legal effects in UK domestic law as attached to EU law while were a Member State. One
effect of this is that legal or natural persons will be able to rely directly on some of the
provisions of the Withdrawal Agreement before the UK courts.
