Proceeding contribution from Lord Trefgarne (Conservative) 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

Does that not mean that the Bill is hybrid and should there not therefore be some other procedure?
