re: [Update] The UK votes to leave the EU
You should also remember that many apparently EU only bits of legislation such as the "CE" mark have their exact counterparts across the globe as jurisdictions have often co-operated to get unified standards.
Our own BSI are very active with their USA counterparts such as UL* in establishing world standards. To think we would have little influence on standards outside the EU is to misunderstand the way these things work.
Inside or out we still have to match world standards as do the Chinese and Americans.
