Proceeding contribution from Baroness Stuart of Edgbaston (Labour) 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)

Does the right hon. Gentleman agree that capping countries' number of seats in the European Parliament, and guaranteeing small member states a minimum of six seats, would mean that Turkey's accession could not take place under the Lisbon treaty, because large countries would be so disproportionately disadvantaged that they would not put up with it?
