EU-Singapore Free Trade Agreement and Investment Protection Agreement — 12 Sep 2018 at 17:39

The majority of MPs voted to express support for the European Union - Singapore Free Trade Agreement.

The motion supported by the majority of MPs in this vote was:

  • That this House
  • takes note of European Union Document No. 7966/18 on the signature of the proposed agreement along with Addenda numbered 1 to 13 and European Union Document No. 7967/18 on the conclusion of the proposed agreement along with Addenda numbered 1 to 13;
  • welcomes the proposed signature and conclusion, on behalf of the EU, of the EU-Singapore Free Trade Agreement;
  • further notes European Union Document No. 7973/18 on the signature of the proposed agreement along with Addenda numbered 1 to 2 and European Union Document No. 7974/18 on the conclusion of the proposed agreement along with Addenda numbered 1 to 2; and
  • further notes the signature and conclusion of the proposed Investment Protection Agreement between the EU and its Member States and Singapore.

Unlike other votes, such as that on Relations Between the European Union, its Member States and Cuba this vote is not on legislation which makes the Free Trade Agreement a European Union Treaty; so this vote is not given as much weight as others on the subject of EU trade agreements.
