Proceeding contribution from Keith Vaz (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 20 December 2010. It occurred during Ministerial statement on European Council.


European Council

The Prime Minister will recall that six months ago he and other EU leaders set out the Europe 2020 strategy as a successor to the Lisbon agenda, which was agreed in 2000. Is he confident that nothing discussed at the weekend will affect the benchmarks that were set in June? With the European Union, what is important is not just getting an agreement, but making sure that countries meet benchmarks on jobs and growth.
