EU CONSTITUTIONAL TREATY

Early day motion 1079, tabled 28 April 2004 by Chris Bryant (Labour). Signed by 21 members.

That this House looks forward to an European Union constitutional treaty being signed that, by replacing the old mish-mash of European Union treaties, makes the European Union more efficient, open, democratic and accountable to national parliaments and that protects Britain's veto on taxation, security and foreign policy; believes Britain is strongest when it plays a central rather than peripheral role in the European Union; and eagerly anticipates debunking the many myths about Europe pumped out by the obsessive Euro sceptics.

Signatures by party: Labour 18, Labour/Co-operative 3.
