Proceeding contribution from William Cash (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 23 March 2009. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Spring European Council.


Spring European Council

The Prime Minister may know that today the hapless Lord Myners has signed off the European Commission's endorsement of the de Larosière report for the creation of a Europe-wide banking and financial rules framework, which—contrary to the statement the Prime Minister has just made—involves in practice majority voting and European Court jurisdiction, thus eliminating national control and jurisdiction. The Government have welcomed this report; Lord Turner has welcomed this report. Will the Prime Minister come clean and ensure that Parliament, and not the European Union, controls our banking and financial services?
