Proceeding contribution from Lord Bach (Labour) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 14 October 2008. It occurred during Debates on delegated legislation on European Parliament (House of Lords Disqualification) Regulations 2008.
European Parliament (House of Lords Disqualification) Regulations 2008
My Lords, that is right, but in our view Standing Orders do not form part of the law of the United Kingdom. This is the important point of the debate—they would not be taken into account by the European authorities in determining whether we were compliant with EU law.
