European Union Bill

Proceeding contribution from Lord Goodhart (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 17 May 2011. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bills on European Union Bill.
Does my noble friend agree, however, that a situation might arise in which it is desired to change from unanimity to a qualified majority vote on the ground that some member states might become very obstructive to the choice of particular members of the judiciary or the advocate-generals, and that it might be the only way of ensuring that the problems did not become overwhelming?
