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.

This is always a complex area. I have never thought that any Briton could ever suffer from xenophobia, because no Briton has ever been frightened of any foreigner.

I should like to continue a little on the detail and look at item No. 48, which is the Council framework decision on the European Union orders freezing property or evidence. Therefore, we are potentially going to give to the European Court and the European Commission rights to freeze the property of British subjects. Item No. 59 deals with the mutual recognition of financial penalties. “Mutual recognition” is the most dangerous part of the agreement on justice and home affairs.
