European Union Bill

If we were to decide that we wished to join the euro, it would be totally reasonable for the Minister—I would like to see the noble Lord, Lord Lamont, in this role—to say to his ECOFIN colleagues, ““We would now like to join the euro, but this is a big one and I am afraid that we will have to have a referendum on the issue””.
