Proceeding contribution from Lord Cameron of Chipping Norton (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 24 October 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on European Council.
European Council
I have always felt that, and our Bill is clear. Under our Bill, Maastricht or any of those treaties would have triggered a referendum. That is the point. I do not think that the hon. Gentleman has been keeping up. I hope that Labour will commit to that legislation, which will mean that if any Government ever try to give away powers from this House, they will have to ask the British public first.
