Possible or nonsense?

What do you mean intermediaries?

Right, so you heard that Brexit may delay the actual implementation (april 6th?)

if so can you elaborate?

Does it really need spelling out?

The thesis being that Brexit will trigger so much turmoil in so many government departments that they will not want to risk losing so many contractors with experience of their particular systems and existing relationships with their stakeholders and thus push to delay the implementation of the intermediaries legislation.
