A total of 52,741 laws have been introduced in the UK as a result of EU legislation since 1990.

UK Prime Minister Theresa May has said that the European Communities Act 1972 will be repealed once the UK formally leaves the EU. At that time, EU law-derived provisions will remain in UK law until reviewed and decisions are made as to whether to keep, amend or repeal them.
