Amsterdam Treaty (Hansard, 2 July 1997)

HC Deb 02 July 1997 vol 297 c194W 194W

§ Sir Richard Body
To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs which European Union Governments are planning to put the Amsterdam treaty to a national referendum; and what is Her Majesty's Government's policy. [6104]

Mr. Henderson
Denmark will hold a national referendum on the Amsterdam Treaty in 1998. We are not aware of any other Member State whose Government has announced that it will hold a referendum, though the situation may change. The Government does not intend to hold a referendum on the Amsterdam Treaty.
