Proceeding contribution from Lord Ryder of Wensum (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Monday, 15 December 2008. It occurred during Ministerial statement on European Council: 11-12 December 2008 and Prime Minister’s Visit to Afghanistan, India and Pakistan.


European Council: 11-12 December 2008 and Prime Minister’s Visit to Afghanistan, India and Pakistan

My Lords, paragraph 5 on the second page of the Statement quotes directly from the communiqué: "““European action includes speeding up … ‘a continued, general and significant reduction in administrative burdens on business’””." This is what the last communiqué said six months ago. Can the Leader of the House remind us what administrative burdens on business have been lifted during the past six months, and what she expects to be lifted in the next six months?
