Great to be part of #Lexxion’s first #EUStateAid webinar with over 150 participants from 27 Member States.

I’m delivering the next one with Jonathan Branton and @GeorgePeretzQC on #StateAid law in the UK including #Brexit and #COVIDー19 exemptions. Image

Tonight’s #StateAid event will be fascinating.

There are many different opinions about what the future should hold for subsidy regulation in the UK, but three main views emerging:

1) lockstep with #EUStateAid rules (assists FTA but at odds with taking back control)

2) #WTOPlus, essentially building a new UK subsidy control system with the starting point being the relevant WTO rules.

There are questions about how this would work in practice given the base rules are rarely enforced and don’t cover services.

3) #UKStateAid - a forward facing independent subsidy control regime.

Allows the UK to design its own block exemptions which contribute to its objectives, eg #climatechange or #regeneration. Part of UK law, rather than EU law.
