Proceeding contribution from David Lidington (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 6 November 2012. It occurred during Debate on bill on European Union (Croatian Accession and Irish Protocol) Bill.


European Union (Croatian Accession and Irish Protocol) Bill

The answer is that we cannot go beyond the period for transitional controls laid down in the treaties. I will say a little more about arrangements for Croatia later. For Romania and Bulgaria, we have extended the transitional controls for the maximum period committed and they have to come to an end by the end of 2013.
