  <p>The Aye-voters failed to carry an <a href="http://www.theyworkforyou.com/glossary/?gl=114
  ">amendment</a> to the <a href="http://services.parliament.uk/bills/2007-08/europeanunionamendment.html">European Union (Amendment) Bill</a> aimed at limiting the power of the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/European_court_of_justice">European Court of Justice</a> to interpret the <a href="http://www.europarl.europa.eu/charter/default_en.htm">Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union</a>.</p>
  
  <p>The amendment can be seen as an attempt to limit devolution of power to the European Union and to prevent the European Court of Justice from gaining ascendancy over British law.</p>
