These Regulations commence the Extradition (Provisional Arrest) Act 2020 (c. 18) (“the Act”), other than section 2 which commenced upon Royal Assent. Regulation 2 brings section 1 of the Act and its Schedule (power of arrest for extradition purposes) into force on IP completion day, save for paragraph 4 of the Schedule which is brought into force (so far as it applies to Norway and Iceland only) immediately after IP completion day.
A full impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument as no, or no significant, impact on the private, voluntary or public sectors is foreseen.
