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

European Union Bill

With all due respect, I say to the hon. Gentleman that I have read in great detail all the evidence that was given to the European Scrutiny Committee and I think that his summation of it is his interpretation of the evidence given. Most of the witnesses to the European Scrutiny Committee said, as I have said, that clause 18 is a statement of fact and that it does not take us forward or back. Therefore, we should not get hot under the collar about it.
