Proceeding contribution from Lord Brady of Altrincham (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 1 November 2005. It occurred during Debate on bill on European Union (Accessions) Bill.


European Union (Accessions) Bill

If anyone is hysterical, it is the former Minister for Europe, and not the shadow Minister for Europe. The Opposition want the Government to give a clear answer as to what their approach will be. The countries involved are quite poor when compared with the rest of the EU 25. There will be considerable pressure and the hon. Gentleman should say whether he believes that there is a limit to the amount of inward migration that the UK can accommodate. The Government do not appear to know the answer to that question.
