Proceeding contribution from David Heathcoat-Amory (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 19 June 2006. It occurred during Ministerial statement on European Council.
European Council
We are all glad that the Foreign Secretary’s extraordinary attempt to block a modest opening up of the Council of Ministers to public scrutiny was itself turned down. However, are our own procedures much better? Does the right hon. Gentleman think it right that the EU Scrutiny Committee weekly meeting has to be held in private, with the public and the press excluded? Will he end this anomaly and strike a small blow for the right of the public to know in our own Parliament?
