Proceeding contribution from William Cash (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 26 February 2008. It occurred during Debate on treaty on Treaty of Lisbon (No. 7).


Treaty of Lisbon (No. 7)

Two groups of amendments to the European Union (Amendment) Bill have been tabled in my name. Will the Minister be good enough to explain exactly what would be left to the United Kingdom in terms of sovereignty, given that, as he well knows, the notions of shared competence and exclusive competence mean that we would no longer be able to legislate in certain areas? On what does he believe we would still be able to legislate, comprehensively?
