European Union (Amendment) Bill

The question in which people are interested is whether there should be a referendum or not. The only excuse that the Foreign Secretary and the Government have for not holding a referendum is that this treaty is in some way fundamentally different from the constitution. However, a report by the European Scrutiny Committee stated"““The Reform Treaty””" —this one—"““will introduce into the existing Treaties all the 'innovations'””" that were in the constitution apart from the symbols, referring, I think, to the flag and the ““Ode to Joy””. Was the Scrutiny Committee wrong? If it was not, the Foreign Secretary is not being straight with the House.
