Mr. Swayne

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if he will make a statement on the extent to which article K7, if incorporated into United Kingdom law, would be binding on future parliaments. [34795]

Mr. Doug Henderson

The European Communities (Amendment) Bill will not incorporate Article K7 into UK law.

There is no question of Article K7 binding future Parliaments.
