European Union (Withdrawal) Bill

Proceeding contribution from Liz Kendall (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 17 January 2018. It occurred during Debate on bills on European Union (Withdrawal) Bill.

On that point in particular, does my hon. Friend agree that all the new clauses and amendments are about trying to get greater openness and honesty about the pros, cons and trade-offs of the choices we face as a country? It is vital that that information is available not just to this House, but to the public. It is our job as Members of Parliament to put it before the country, because these huge decisions have big consequences, but we have had to drag the Government every step of the way towards putting such information before the country.
