Proceeding contribution from Baroness Carnegy of Lour (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Monday, 20 October 2008. It occurred during Ministerial statement on European Council: 15-16 October 2008.


European Council: 15-16 October 2008

My Lords, the noble Baroness said that the Government do not want to cut down on freedom of movement in the European Union. It is clear that a dangerously growing political problem for member states will be, as unemployment rises, the presence of large numbers of workers from other member states. Did the Council discuss that likely scenario at all or did it discuss only people committing criminal acts in other member states?
