Proceeding contribution from Lord Redwood (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 8 March 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on European Union Bill.
European Union Bill
The hon. Lady is absolutely right. I can remember visiting EU Councils as a Minister and discovering that the Council of Ministers often met as a legislature. It was about to enact extremely important laws affecting all our countries, and all that the others and I said was entirely secret and did not have to be shared with the public. That is an absolute disgrace: we need much more transparency.
