Proceeding contribution from Lord Campbell of Alloway (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 16 June 2011. It occurred during Question for short debate on EUC Report: Economic Governance.


EUC Report: Economic Governance

My Lords, may I ask a very short question? Being very much impressed by the speech that has been made, what is the position of the Opposition? I am not quite sure what the policy of the Government is, but with vast extraterritorial commitments now, should there be a moratorium until we can retrieve our debt without borrowing more money to pay the interest? I do not say that they should be excluded for ever. I am not expert on these things but I would like to know what the noble Lord has to say.
