Resolving conflicts between English law and European Union law
One inevitable consequence of the entry of EU law into English law is that, from time to time, specific provisions of the two systems will conflict with each other. It is clearly established that these conflicts will be resolved in favour of EU law, but we will postpone further discussion of this matter until we come to the topic of the supremacy of EU law in the next chapter (see pp. 46–49).
