2014 JHA Opt-out Decision

Proceeding contribution from Jacob Rees-Mogg (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 15 July 2013. It occurred during Debate on 2014 JHA Opt-out Decision.

I am grateful to my hon. Friend because this is a most interesting point. Is it arguable to say that Lisbon is itself a treaty change, and that what is happening is consequent to a treaty change and therefore triggers the referendum mechanism, in spite of what our right hon. Friend the Home Secretary has said? Might that not be worth testing at judicial review?
