Proceeding contribution from David Nuttall (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 5 March 2012. It occurred during Ministerial statement on European Council.


European Council

I thank the Prime Minister for his statement and warmly congratulate him on not signing the fiscal compact agreement. Article 16 of the agreement provides that within five years at most, a further attempt will be made to bring the agreement into the legal framework of the European Union. I am sure that my right hon. Friend will remain as Prime Minister throughout that period, so can he reassure me and the House that if such an attempt is made, he will exercise his veto once more?
