SPEECHES IN THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT
16 May 2006 : Godfrey as is his trademark was making trouble for the authorities : Speech in European Parliament
Mr President, I wish to raise a point under Rules 151 (3) of the Rules of Procedure. I wonder whether you can help me. Should you declare Amendments 8 and 16 of this Doorn report inadmissible, since the Treaty of Nice is the only treaty that is in force? There is not such a thing as the 'Consitutional Treaty'. Although there are many here who wish to forget that, the French and Dutch voted 'no' in their referendums. No treaty has replaced the Treaty of Nice. These amendments should therfore be declared inadmissible.
