Proceeding contribution from Judy Mallaber (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 6 February 2008. It occurred during Debate on treaty on Treaty of Lisbon (No. 4).
Treaty of Lisbon (No. 4)
Preventing countries from competing unfairly by allowing their workers to be exploited is a key element in the free movement of labour. The minimum social provisions are important in that respect. Today, on the 90th anniversary of the introduction of women's suffrage, does the Secretary of State agree that any step that threatened the treaty and led possibly to opt-outs from the social chapter would be extraordinarily retrograde and would prevent attempts to provide harmony and free competition within the market?
