Proceeding contribution from Baroness Amos (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 19 December 2005. It occurred during Ministerial statement on European Council: 15–16 December 2005.


European Council: 15–16 December 2005

My Lords, the noble Lord, who has much greater experience in these matters than I have, is absolutely right. The answer is ““Yes”” with regard to the budgets remaining capped, and ““Yes”” to the rebate remaining an integral part of the system. It is also right that Britain will remain in the middle group of net contributors. The Netherlands, Germany and others are ahead of us.
