European Union Bill

Proceeding contribution from Lord Waddington (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 15 June 2011. It occurred during Debate on bills on European Union Bill.
Before my noble friend sits down, does he not agree that however elegant may be the language of Amendment 33 and although it states clearly that EU law is binding in this country because of the 1972 Act, it does not scotch the proposition that EU law may be binding for other reasons. That is surely the point. It says only that EU law is binding because of that because we know it. What we want to be sure is that the argument that EU law may be binding other than for that reason is not allowed to fly.
