Proceeding contribution from Lord Brett (Labour) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 27 January 2009. It occurred during Debates on delegated legislation on European Communities (Definition of Treaties) (Agreements concluded under Article XXI GATS) Order 2009.
European Communities (Definition of Treaties) (Agreements concluded under Article XXI GATS) Order 2009
The answer is that it is of a continuum with where we are. When those two countries are full members of the European Union, there will be a similar exercise. If that leads to a requirement on their part for greater or lesser relationships than they already have with other WTO members, there will be a similar exercise and similar secondary legislation to put before the House at a later stage. However, we can proceed with these things only state by state and member by member. Motion agreed.
