Yesterday, written evidence we submitted to the House of Commons Retained EU Law Committee was published. We have recommended the UK and devolved governments should clarify, at the earliest opportunity, the process they intend to follow, clear timelines... 1/2
The short timescales proposed for the review of Retained EU laws could put environmental protection and improvement at risk.
We believe the REUL Bill ‘sunset’ date of the end of 2023 should be reconsidered and extended. Read our evidence to the Bill committee here ➡️ bit.ly/3VgAOoQ

Last but not least: loved seeing the cycling provision. Things we don’t yet have in Oxford include hirebikes like @WMCycleHire, secure storage like here, and the killer (or rather life-saver): LTN 1/20 standard infrastructure. Really can’t emphasise this enough. (6/7)
Loved this! A kids playpark in the city centre and a nice melding of some of what seems to be the remains of Cathedral no.46 (or something! Did I mention there were a lot of Cathedrals?) with a bar. Also note the way the stairs to the slide match the building. (5/7)
Also lots of public art and general creativity with mixing old and new Loved this rainbow shopping arcade, as with everywhere around the country there were empty units but seemed less depressing somehow. (4/7)
Pedestrianisation was really the most impressive thing for me. I felt safe in the town centre, I would bring my kids here and not be worried about them getting run over all the time. The walk from the train station is great: it’s WAY better than Oxford for example. (2/7)
Right some more #CovLove from a person who visited Coventry for the first time this weekend and really thinks it’s a great place. Look at this cute little elephant bollard! (1/7)
Late night addition to my Coventry love: look at one of Englands oldest pubs! It looks so Olde England it should be in Disneyworld. And yet another Cathedral. They really are long Cathedrals folks. Brilliant start to #Restitch24
Also very interested in everyone’s experiences of Coventry as I had a vague negative idea about it and it’s actually lovely. (/ends)
