The House of Commons Library recently published a 184 page briefing paper entitled “Brexit: impact across policy areas”. Over 21 chapters, it gives an early but authoritative overview of the likely impact of Brexit across different sectors including trade, employment, energy, medicines regulation and human rights to name just a few. The predictions are necessarily uncertain in places, but the paper provides a very useful summary of the main policy areas which are likely to be most affected by Brexit.
