Treaty of Lisbon (No. 6)

Proceeding contribution from Gwyneth Dunwoody (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 25 February 2008. It occurred during Debates on treaty on Treaty of Lisbon (No. 6).
I am sure that we are all glad that any account can be signed off in the European institutions. However, other European Union trade policies specifically prohibit the sort of development that makes the difference between poverty and wealth in underdeveloped countries. Is my right hon. Friend happy for us to hand over so many international development powers to those whose interpretation of representation is frequently a large house in a small country?
