Proceeding contribution from Mark Hendrick (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 20 June 2005. It occurred during Ministerial statement on European Council.


European Council

I commend my right hon. Friend’s position on retaining the British rebate until the CAP is reformed further. In a year when Africa is top of the political agenda, the CAP in its present form is an obscenity. Will he comment on the front-page article in today’s Financial Times, which says that the British presidency of the European Union will work to get a budget agreement before the end of the year?
