Proceeding contribution from Ian Davidson (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 11 July 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on European Union Bill.


European Union Bill

I am grateful to the Minister for giving way in the circumstances. Surely the hon. Member for Rochester and Strood (Mark Reckless) is wrong and we cannot have a situation where Members of the House of Lords who are in receipt of money from Brussels vote and do not declare it. Surely that would be counter to everything in our parliamentary democracy and surely they give an indication that they are in receipt of gold from Brussels.
