Proceeding contribution from Baroness Harman (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 5 July 2007. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.


Business of the House

There is strong concern that the House should carry out proper scrutiny of EU issues, and I will shortly meet the Chair of the European Scrutiny Committee. There is no question of a referendum because there is no new constitution or constitutional treaty. Any amendments to an existing treaty will be subject to the proper scrutiny of the House, which is what we would all want.
