Proceeding contribution from Baroness Ashton of Upholland (Labour) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 22 April 2008. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on European Union (Amendment) Bill.
European Union (Amendment) Bill
I think I am grateful to my noble friend. The issue he raises is absolutely right. In a sense, we are discussing a concept which means different things to different people. The principle behind the concerns on this issue is the amalgamation in one person of all of these different responsibilities. I hope that I have at least in part laid this to rest, by reference back to the treaty. I hope noble Lords will take the chance to look at that.
