Proceeding contribution from William Cash (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 2 February 2009. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Lindsey Oil Refinery.
Lindsey Oil Refinery
The Minister may know that this morning, on a television programme, Derek Simpson said that the Prime Minister had had meetings regarding the three rulings of the European Court only about a month ago, and that some action was expected as a result of those discussions. He added, in reply to a question, that it appeared that that action had been dropped. Can the Minister tell us what action was proposed, and whether it was in line with what Alan Johnson said on the programme yesterday? Will the Minister also ensure that if it is impossible to overcome the European Court rulings—which we all know is the case—we will legislate in the House of Commons to ensure that we provide proper and fair treatment for the workers and trade unions of this country?
