Proceeding contribution from Steve Baker (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 11 July 2011. It occurred during Debate on Rights and Protection of Victims.


Rights and Protection of Victims

I am listening with great interest to my hon. Friend. I very much applaud and welcome his and the Government's intent, but does he realise that we could achieve the same end without opting in to this EU directive? We could negotiate a separate arrangement with opt-outs, which would not be available under an EU directive.
