Proceeding contribution from Henry Smith (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 24 April 2012. It occurred during Debate on Data Protection in the Areas of Police and Criminal Justice (EU Directive).


Data Protection in the Areas of Police and Criminal Justice (EU Directive)

Is it not the case that if we opt in to this directive, it will be a one-way decision that we cannot back out of? It will be decided through qualified majority voting, so we may not get exactly the sort of directive that would suit the United Kingdom, which is yet another reason.
