Definition

• When making regulations under powers in the EU (Withdrawal) Act 2018, a Minister may choose either the negative or affirmative procedure in most cases. When the Minister proposes to use the negative procedure, the statutory instrument (SI) must be laid in draft for consideration, also known as “sifting”, by the European Statutory Instrument Committee in the Commons and the Secondary Legislation Scrutiny Committee in the Lords. At this stage the SI is called a proposed negative statutory instrument.
