Proceeding contribution from Baroness Williams of Crosby (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Monday, 23 May 2011. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on European Union Bill.

European Union Bill

My Lords, my point is even briefer. Can the Minister give a little explanation of the Motion being ““without amendment””? For example, if there were to be a relatively small, technical amendment, would it in fact mean that parliamentary approval was withheld? Perhaps the Minister could say a little more on that point: why the stress on ““without amendment””?
