Lord Bellingham: ..., of thousands of people in this country. The Minister said that, now we have left the EU, we can introduce legislation to go further than EU regulations.

Exiting the Eu: Costs (29 Nov 2017)

Henry Bellingham: The Chief Secretary will be very aware that her constituents and mine voted overwhelmingly to leave.

I congratulate the Secretary of State and...

It is going to be co-hosted by the UK and Malta, and I think it really gives us an opportunity to look at where we go post-Brexit.
