  EU Constitution
  
  --- MOTION EFFECT ---
  
  <p>I beg to move,</p>
  
  <p>That this House, in the light of the rejection of the EU Constitution by the French and the Dutch people, urges the Government to make clear its intention not to ratify the EU Constitutional Treaty, and instead to pursue a policy of a more decentralised and deregulated Europe, better suited to serving the people of Europe.</p>
  
  <p>I beg to move, To leave out from "House" to the end of the Question, and to add instead thereof:</p>
  
  <p class="indent">"agree that the EU should uphold the concept of subsidiarity and pursue greater flexibility and better regulation, and continue the contribution it has made to peace, democracy and prosperity over recent decades for the benefit of the people of Europe; and pledge not to introduce either elements of the EU constitution or the whole without the consent of the people of the United Kingdom in a national referendum"</p>
  
  <p><i>Question put accordingly,</i> That the original words stand part of the Question:&#8212;</p>
  
  <p><i>The House divided:</i> Ayes 186, Noes 331.</p>
