Proceeding contribution from Keir Starmer (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 20 May 2025. It occurred during Ministerial statement on UK-EU Summit.
UK-EU Summit
It is the same as the Windsor framework, which the right hon. Gentleman’s party negotiated. This is an important point: it is an independent arbitration process. There is the same process for pretty well every trade deal that is struck, not just by us and other countries but by most other countries. In this particular case, if the independent arbitration needs reference on a point of law, it is referred to the ECJ, which then refers it back to the independent arbitrator to make a decision. That is how it operates.
