Proceeding contribution from Lord Davies of Stamford (Labour) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 6 March 2019. It occurred during Debate on bill on Trade Bill.
Trade Bill
I am most grateful to my noble friend for giving way. I know that she is an expert in the subject. Does she agree that when the European Union has been conducting trade negotiations with a view to reaching trade agreements with third parties, it has always set very high standards of consultation and transparency, reporting regularly to the European Parliament as well as consulting business interests that might be at stake, trade associations and other potential stakeholders? Does she further agree that it is a terrible pity that the British Government do not seem to be following that excellent example?
