European Union (Amendment) Bill

moved Amendment No. 30: 30: Clause 2, page 1, line 12, after ““excluding”” insert— ““(i) Article 2, paragraph 12, inserted Article 2B TEC (TFEU) paragraph 1(d), relating to the conservation of marine biological resources under the common fisheries policy; and (ii) ”” The noble Duke said: This amendment was tabled by my noble friend Lord Howell of Guildford. I am still feeling confused by the reaction of the Liberal Democrats to their own amendment being moved in this House. Luckily, the noble Lord, Lord McNally, put us on notice at the end of his article in the House Magazine when he said: "““My stratagem for the bill is now clear—we are going to confuse our opponents with the facts””." If they have not confused themselves, I am sure that they have confused most other people.
