with effect from vs effective

[Tan Elaine]

The new policy will begin with effect from 1 June.
The new policy will begin effective 1 June.

Are both sentences correct with the same meaning?

Thanks.

The first may be okay in British English but it doesn't work in the American variety. The second is okay.

Americans in the civilian sector usually express dates as June 1st, but it's not unusual to see the "1 June" format.

I find the combination of "begin" and "with effect from/effective from" a little odd.

The new policy will begin on June 1st.
The new policy will come into effect on June 1st.
There will (soon) be a new policy, effective from June 1st.
There will (soon) be a new policy, with effect from June 1st.
