Proceeding contribution from Lord Lester of Herne Hill (Liberal Democrat) 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, the note explains that because this is a negative resolution, no statement of compatibility with the European convention is needed. Of course that is correct, but can the Minister confirm to the House that he is satisfied that no breach or threatened breach of the convention is involved in passing the regulations into law?
