Proceeding contribution from Adrian Bailey (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 4 March 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee of the Whole House (HC) on European Union (Amendment) Bill.
European Union (Amendment) Bill

That is the essential driving force behind the reorganisation.
