Proceeding contribution from Lord Roper (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 18 June 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on European Union (Amendment) Bill.


European Union (Amendment) Bill

My Lords, the noble Lord says that every time there has been a consultation, this view has been expressed. I assume, therefore, that he is referring to the referendums on the previous treaty as well as on this one. If that is the case, he ought to remember that on the previous treaty there were four referendums: two were in favour and two were against.
