The majority of MPs voted in favour of the creation of the European Stability Mechanism – a permanent measure to give financial assistance to Eurozone countries in need.
The majority of MPs agreed with the draft European Council decision to amend Article 136[1] of the Treaty for the Functioning of the European Union[2].
Article 136 is about EU member states with the euro as their currency. This change is made in accordance with section 6 of the European Union (Amendment) Act 2008.[3]
The agreed amendment would add the following text to Article 136:
‘The Member States whose currency is the euro may establish a stability mechanism to be activated if indispensable to safeguard the stability of the euro area as a whole. The granting of any required financial assistance under the mechanism will be made subject to strict conditionality.’
