Proceeding contribution from Chris Leslie (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 12 December 2017. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee of the Whole House (HC) on European Union (Withdrawal) Bill.


European Union (Withdrawal) Bill

The Bill’s provisions are so wide-ranging that the protections that our constituents have enjoyed to this day as a result of European regulations and rights could be at risk—not from Parliament, but from a ministerial sweep of the pen, through the making of an order: a negative statutory instrument.
