Eagle-eyed viewers among you will have spotted the first change.
The clauses have different numbers #⃣
Part 5 now starts with 42, not 40.
So the contentious clauses (which, "yes, do break international law") are now:
44 [export declns],
45 [state aid]
& 47 [law? schmaw!].

This am @AileenMcHarg joined @BBCRadioScot to discuss the UK Government's #internalmarket white paper to weigh in on the power grab / power surge debate.
Lots of questions remain about how the internal market might operate, says Aileen. Will there be possibilities for the devolved parliaments to override these cross-cutting internal market constraints? How will it operate? How will it be enforced?
She suggests that the white paper sets out an internal market which covers a greater degree of policy areas than existing EU regulations.
The UK Govt is publishing a white paper today on the UK #InternalMarket
