The Social Security (Iceland) (Liechtenstein) (Norway) (Citizens’ Rights Agreement) (Further provision in respect of Scotland) Order 2019
This Order makes provision for the modification of social security legislation, so far as it relates to devolved matters, so as to give effect to the Agreement between the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and Iceland, the Principality of Liechtenstein, and the Kingdom of Norway regarding arrangements for citizens’ rights following the withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the European Union and the EEA Agreement, signed at London on 2 April 2019 (“the EEA Citizens’ Rights Agreement”). It does so by applying the modification provided for by article 2(1) of the Social Security (Iceland) (Liechtenstein) (Norway) (Citizens’ Rights Agreement) Order 2019 (S.I. 2019/1302) (“the 2019 Order”), where the legislation being modified relates to a matter which falls within the legislative competence of the Scottish Parliament, and in relation to which competence for the exercise of functions has transferred to the Scottish Ministers.
