The motion coming up on Wednesday won't just acknowledge that Parliament has been informed of what el gov is doing. If accepted in its current state, it will cause Parliament to resolve that the gov's proposed A50 timetable should be implemented.
The Supreme Court has a wide range of possible conclusions open to it. If its ruling is anything less than full repeal of the EC 1972 act then it is conceivable that it will accept Parliament's resolution of this Wednesday as adequate.
I'm not saying this is the most likely outcome but the government has certainly thrown something very interesting into the pot.
