European Union (Withdrawal) Bill

I thank the Solicitor General for saying that he is going to look seriously at these points during the Committee stage. The point of bringing the EU law into the UK law is to give certainty. Each of those European regulations has the strict articles—the letter of the law—and the recitals, which give guidance as to how it is to be interpreted and implemented. Will he assure me that he will seek to ensure that our judges will look at not only the articles, but the recitals—the principles behind it?
