THE UK SUBSIDY CONTROL REGIME - SUBSIDY BASIS

Until the UK left the European Union, the EU's State aid rules controlled how UK and discretionary EU funding was provided to enterprises and entities that engage in economic activities. Now the UK has left the EU, it is no longer bound by the State aid rules (except when Article 10 of the Northern Ireland Protocol applies) and has developed its own domestic subsidy control regime.

THE SUBSIDY CONTROL ACT 2022

The Subsidy Control Act 2022 provides the framework for the provision of subsidies and builds on the provisions in the subsidy control chapters of the Trade and Co-operation Agreement, which applied in the interim after the UK’s exit from the EU.

Given the complications arising from exiting the EU, Brexit, it would make no sense for anyone in the UK, fresh to the market, and expecting to distribute goods, or IP, internationally, to even consider doing so via Northern Ireland. This is the view of the applicant, given that it is hard enough for any fledgling company to springboard from dormancy to trading status.
