Proceeding contribution from Rob Marris (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 3 March 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee of the Whole House (HC) on European Union (Amendment) Bill.
European Union (Amendment) Bill
I have certainly not become confused. I have already adverted to amendment No. 39 and what it does. If the hon. Member for Stone bears with me, he might see where I am going, so I urge patience. As I have said, subsection (1) uses the word ““definition””, whereas subsection (4) refers to"““changes in terminology or numbering””." The power granted under subsection (4) relates to changes in terminology or numbering; it does not relate to definitions. For the particular benefit of the hon. Member for Stone, that is why I have said three times that the title of clause 3 is not helpful—I used the adjective ““maladroit””—and drawn attention to the use of the word ““definition”” in subsection (1).
