Proceeding contribution from Lord Bellingham (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 19 May 2005. It occurred during Queen's speech debate on Industry and the Environment.
Industry and the Environment
I congratulate the Secretary of State on his appointment. Does he recall that when he was a Minister of State I had the pleasure of shadowing him for a while, and on several occasions, he said that the UK’s opt-out from the working time directive was not negotiable? Is that still the case, and what does he say to his socialist Members of the European Parliament who voted to give up that opt-out?
