  --- MOTION EFFECT ---
  
  
  
  
  
  
  <p>The Aye-voters successfully carried the motion that Clause 2 of the <a href="http://services.parliament.uk/bills/2007-08/europeanunionamendment.html">European Union (Amendment) Bill</a> stand as part of the <a href=" http://www.theyworkforyou.com/glossary/?gl=249">Bill</a> thus confirming the failure of an earlier amendment that argued that "any provision imposing an obligation on the Parliament of the United Kingdom" should be excluded.</p>
  
  <p>This was thus a further step along the road of ratifying the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Treaty_of_lisbon">Treaty of Lisbon</a> and promoting closer European integration.</p>
