Suggested amendment

leave out from first 'the' to end and add 'ways and means of introducing clear and open democratic procedures into the operations of the institutions of the EEC, whilst providing for widespread and precisely protected areas of de-centralised legal authority, involving the rejection of the ill-defined principle of subsidiarity which is of little benefit to anyone apart from lawyers and bureaucrats.'

Original motion text

That this House urges Her Majesty's Government to use the decision to postpone the passage of the European Communities (Amendment) Bill as an opportunity to make a fresh start with the future development of the EEC and in particular to concentrate its efforts on the chosen agenda of the British presidency which is to extend the borders of the EEC and to create a fully competitive common market.
