Agency relocation decisions postponed

The European Council will not decide on the new homes for the European Medicines Agency and European Banking Authority until November, a month later than planned.

Heads of EU member state governments met in Brussels yesterday, and agreed on the procedure for deciding where the EMA and EBA will move to from London as a result of the UK exiting the EU. However, the Council president Donald Tusk said on Twitter afterwards that the actual decision had been pushed back a month.

“EU27 will decide by vote in November on relocation of EU agencies currently in UK,” he said.
