Proceeding contribution from Lord Tebbit (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Monday, 9 June 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on European Union (Amendment) Bill.


European Union (Amendment) Bill

My Lords, it is clear to all of us that if the Judicial Committee of this House or, in future, the Supreme Court gives a decision that Parliament feels is wrong and outside its powers, Parliament can put it right. Who has the power to overrule the Supreme Court in Europe in that way?
