Proceeding contribution from Martin Horwood (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 27 February 2008. It occurred during Debate on treaty on Treaty of Lisbon (No. 8).


Treaty of Lisbon (No. 8)

The hon. Gentleman has just made the extraordinary statement that it does not need a treaty to take action on climate change. Does he seriously think that something as complex as the emissions trading scheme could possibly have been established among 27 member states without the offices of the European Union, which the treaty will reinforce?
