Parliamentary Scrutiny of Leaving the EU

Proceeding contribution from Toby Perkins (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 12 October 2016. It occurred during Opposition day on Parliamentary Scrutiny of Leaving the EU.

If it is really the case that article 50 is the start of the process and we begin scrutiny after that, why is it being triggered nine months after the vote? Surely that is because a huge amount of preparatory work is required, and that is what we want to scrutinise.
