Proceeding contribution from Andy Burnham (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 15 January 2008. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HC) and Debate on bill on European Communities (Finance) Bill.


European Communities (Finance) Bill

How many interventions do the Opposition want me to take? The Opposition's position probably explains why, at the last count, they had one other member in their new European grouping, having previously had two. I hope that the shadow Chief Secretary to the Treasury will enlighten us, if there have been recent additions to the club, but I believe that they are still in a grouping of two in the European Parliament. He looks puzzled.
