Lisbon Treaty (No.1)

Proceeding contribution from James Clappison (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 29 January 2008. It occurred during Debates on treaty on Lisbon Treaty (No.1).
My hon. Friend has been very generous. Is it not the case that, as far as this country is concerned, the European arrest warrant has been decided under the existing third-pillar provisions, that the European Court of Justice has no jurisdiction, and that the European Commission has no right of enforcement? Should not Labour Members, including the right hon. Member for Rotherham (Mr. MacShane), address the question of what benefits this country could gain by allowing full jurisdiction for the European Court of Justice and rights of enforcement for the European Commission? Does that not apply across the board?
