Proceeding contribution from Rob Marris (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 30 January 2008. It occurred during Debate on treaty on Treaty of Lisbon (No. 2).


Treaty of Lisbon (No. 2)

Article 122 of the consolidated texts, which is, I think, the article 100 that is being discussed, states in paragraph 2 that the Commission, having consulted people,"““may grant, under certain conditions, Union financial assistance to the Member State concerned.””" Surely the article about emergency situations is to do with financial assistance from the EU, and not to do with diverting supplies from one country to another, or anything else.
