Proceeding contribution from Richard Burden (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 25 February 2008. It occurred during Debate on treaty on Treaty of Lisbon (No. 6).

Treaty of Lisbon (No. 6)

I am grateful to the hon. Gentleman, my Birmingham colleague. I will not ask him to go as far as my hon. Friend the Member for City of York (Hugh Bayley) did when he asked whether the hon. Gentleman agreed with every word from BOND. However, does he agree with this aspect of what BOND said:"““The implementation of the EU Reform Treaty will be the only real opportunity between now and next Financial Perspectives in 2014 to ensure that there is greater coherence between development cooperation and other EU external action policies and to improve effectiveness and impact of EC development cooperation””?" Does he agree with BOND at least on that point?
