EUC Report: Court of Justice of the European Union — Question for Short Debate ( 9 Oct 2013)

Lord Liddle: ...’ European Union Committee and the quality and commitment of its members to see that its recommendations are acted on by the Government.

EU: Advocates-General of the Court of Justice — Motion to Take Note (10 Jun 2013)

Lord Liddle: ...are trying to argue that the cost has to be kept within the existing budget. It is all very well making these declarations but how will it be done? I agree very much with what the noble Lord, Lord Bowness, said about not differentiating between cost and value.

Lord Liddle: Whatever the specifics of the point raised by the noble Lord, Lord Bowness, does it not illustrate the need to include in this clause some equivalent of the significance test provided in Clause 6? I wonder whether, in the spirit of co-operation and willingness to consider things in a flexible way, the Government might take away and consider-for all of these later clauses that require an Act...

European Union Bill: Committee (2nd Day) (Continued) (26 Apr 2011)

Lord Liddle: ...a great expert on the European Court of Justice, unlike other noble Lords who may be in the Chamber. However, in its analysis of that Court your Lordships' own committee, under the noble Lord, Lord Bowness, pointed to the possibility of the need for some change in the treaty.
