Proceeding contribution from Pat McFadden (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 21 May 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Regulatory Enforcement and Sanctions Bill [Lords].


Regulatory Enforcement and Sanctions Bill [Lords]

The hon. Gentleman asks several questions. The Bill will not change the fundamental relationship between the United Kingdom and the European Union, or the way in which that legal regime operates. He will be glad to know that the United Kingdom has led the way in driving an agenda to cut administrative burdens that are caused by European regulations and laws. As I was about to inform hon. Members, our work in the United Kingdom has already delivered some £800 million of reductions in administrative burdens to business.
