Except that Law 80 says:
(c) for any other tournament or event the National
Bridge Organisation in whose territory the tournament
takes place.

Thus the YC cannot be the RA for it's own competitions whilst Earl's
Court remains on English territory.

It will be necessary for the EBU to assign RA powers to the YC and for
the YC to implement ACBL regulations under those delegated powers.
It would not be legal for the ACBL/French games at the YC to continue
offering masterpoints from the respective NAs were the EBU to refuse to
make such an assignment.
