Lord Callanan (Con)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 30 June 2025

Debate

UK-Mauritius Agreement on the Chagos Archipelago

Contribution

This is a simple question to the noble Lord. I am very well aware of the procedures. Is he saying that the Government will bring forward the legislation before the treaty is ratified or that the legislation would need to be passed by Parliament before it is ratified? In other words, he will not just bring it forward and then ratify the treaty before Parliament has approved it. It is a simple question, to which I would like a simple answer.
