European Union Bill — New Clause 11 — Provision for further referendum — 1 Feb 2011 at 21:15

Nick Herbert MP, Arundel and South Downs voted with the majority (No).

I beg to move, That the clause be read a Second time.

It is a great pleasure to follow my hon. Friend the Member for Witham (Priti Patel), who made such a powerful speech. I hope that I am able to tempt her into joining us in the Division Lobby later tonight, given what she said about new clause 7. It would be wrong of me not to pay tribute to the Whips' Office for allowing me this time tonight, and for arranging matters so that my amendment 48 was not debated last week, when there clearly was not enough time for it. Now, we have absolutely hours and hours to discuss new clause 11, and I congratulate the Whips on that.

Question put, That the clause be added to the Bill.

The Committee divided: Ayes 26, Noes 295.
