Members Of Parliament And International Assemblies
EDM number 434 in 1993-94, proposed by Russell Johnston on 25/01/1994.
That this House believes that a system should be agreed between the political parties allowing honourable Members who are involved in international institutions, recognised by the UK, such as the Parliamentary Assemblies of the Council of Europe and Western European Union, the Inter-Parliamentary Union and the Commonwealth Parliamentary Association to deposit their votes with their respective whips, to be used according to their instructions so that attendance at these bodies which advance international co-operation are not dependent on domestic party relations, which can, at times, deteriorate, even to the extent of suspending pairing arrangements, leading to the exclusion of UK representatives from such bodies to the disadvantage of both the UK and the institutions.
This motion has been signed by a total of 8 MPs.
