Proceeding contribution from Peter Bone (Conservative) 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
Although I agree with the thrust of my hon. Friend's argument, would it not be better to accept the amendment that specifies the need for an Act of Parliament rather than accept the Government's position, under which they will not have an Act of Parliament or primary legislation? If that entailed a huge row between us and the EU over sovereignty, would it be a bad thing?
