The European Union (Regulated Professions Proportionality Assessment) Regulations 2020

These Regulations implement Directive (EU) 2018/958 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 28 June 2018 on a proportionality test before adoption of new regulation of professions (“the Directive”). The Directive requires an assessment of proportionality to be undertaken before introducing new, or amending existing, legislative, regulatory or administrative provisions restricting access to, or the pursuit of, regulated professions (“a professional regulatory provision”). These Regulations will cease to have effect on IP completion day.
