Proceeding contribution from Baroness Stuart of Edgbaston (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 3 June 2010. It occurred during Debate on European Affairs.


European Affairs

The hon. Gentleman is a former Member of the European Parliament and before he gets too sanctimonious, I remind him that during the Convention on the Future of Europe the European Parliament refused to agree on one seat because the default position in the treaty is that the Parliament sits in Strasbourg. Without French agreement, it would have had to give up its seat in Brussels.
