Proceeding contribution from Bob Spink (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 28 January 2008. It occurred during Debate on Business of the House (Lisbon Treaty).


Business of the House (Lisbon Treaty)

Does my hon. Friend share the concern that the treaty transfers significant, crucial powers away from Parliament to the European Union—powers on the common fisheries policy, employment, transport, rail, air travel, space policy and matters concerning the charter of fundamental rights—and the motion does not even allow us to debate those specific issues?
