Rishi Sunak has vowed to scrap EU red tape within 100 days of becoming PM
Writing in the Telegraph, Mr Sunak said: "I strongly believe that I made the right decision in backing the Leave campaign. Because of Brexit, 21st century Britain will be a sovereign, global, free-trading nation with full control over its laws, regulations and international trade policy.
"As Prime Minister, I would task a new Brexit Delivery Department with reviewing all of the remaining 2,400 laws on our statute book – with the first set of recommendations as to whether each law should be scrapped or reformed being published within my first 100 days in the job. Meanwhile, Tom Tugendhat, who is the chairman of the foreign affairs committee, has focused on housing in his proposals, saying his "dream" of his children being able to afford their own home was "turning into a nightmare".
