HC Deb 10 June 1997 vol 295 c382W
Mrs. Ewing

To ask the President of the Council when she expects to move to re-establish the Select Committee on European Legislation and European Standing Committees A and B; and if she will make a statement on her proposals for their responsibilities in the forthcoming parliamentary session. [2567]

Mrs. Ann Taylor

I hope that the Committees will be re-established soon. They will continue to operate under their current Standing Orders pending the House's approval of any recommendations for change following the review of the process for scrutinising European legislation, which the Government is committed to undertaking.
