GOVERNMENT CONCESSIONS TO MEMBERS-DESIGNATE OF THE EU

Early day motion 580, tabled 9 February 2004 by Keith Vaz (Labour). Signed by 10 members.

That this House recognises Britain's and particularly the Prime Minister's role as the champion of EU enlargement; notes that Britain together with Ireland are the only two countries in the EU that have not imposed restrictions on the free movement of EU citizens; further notes recent statements that this policy may have changed; and calls on the Home Secretary to clarify this matter so that the process of enlargement of the EU can be seen as a unifying factor rather than a divisive one.

Signatures by party: Labour 6, Liberal Democrat 3, Plaid Cymru 1.
