Proceeding contribution from Lord Hague of Richmond (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 7 December 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill on European Union Bill.
European Union Bill
That is a different argument about referendums on accession treaties. Such treaties do not extend the powers and competences of the European Union, and so are not within the terms of the Bill. If the hon. Lady wants to advocate a referendum on the accession of Turkey, there will, sadly, be time for her to do so because the process will take a while. However, that is a separate argument from the extension of powers and competences.
