Brexit Both parties to the withdrawal negotiation are bound by Article 50 (3), which states explicitly that the EU treaties will cease to apply "from the date of entry into force of the withdrawal agreement or, failing that, two years after" the withdrawal notification unless the EU Council and UK agree to extend the two-year period. The European Union's Directives for the negotiation of an agreement notes that "The Agreement should set a withdrawal date which is at the latest 30 March 2019 at 00:00 (Brussels time)," —i.e. Central European Time— "unless the European Council, in agreement with the United Kingdom, unanimously decides to extend this period in accordance with Article 50(3) of the Treaty on European Union."[89] The UK government does not mention a date, but states in the European Union (Withdrawal) Bill that " 'exit day' means such day as a Minister of the Crown may by regulations appoint".[90] In the United Kingdom, when a day is appointed for legislation to come into force, this normally means at the beginning of that day.
