Carl Baudenbacher, Peter Oliver and Michael Bowsher QC made a joint submission to the House of Commons EU Scrutiny Committee in connection with their inquiry into Dispute Resolution and Enforcement in the Withdrawal Agreement. The submission is here.
The submission suggests that despite misgivings over the Court of Justice of the EU continuing to exercise jurisdiction in the EU after Brexit, this situation should be accepted for a short period. Apart from any other considerations, it is hard to see what other process can be put in place in the time available. The Court of Justice should only retain jurisdiction for a short time after the transitional period. The EFTA Court would then provide a sensible forum for resolution of the various disputes that will have to be addressed.
