  --- MOTION EFFECT ---
  
  <p>The No-voters changed the motion for debate (proposed by the Conservative opposition) from:</p>
  
  <p class="indent">This House, in the light of the rejection of the <a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/2950276.stm"> EU Constitution</a> by the <a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/4592243.stm"> French</a> and the <a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/4601731.stm"> Dutch</a> 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>to:</p>
  
  <p class="indent">This House endorses <a href="http://www.theyworkforyou.com/debates/?id=2005-06-06.991.0"> the Statement of 6th June by the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs</a>, which set out the Government's response to the results of the French and Dutch referenda on the EU Constitutional Treaty; recognises that discussions will now take place on the future of the Constitutional Treaty between European leaders collectively; and agrees 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.</p>
  
  <p>by voting against the proposition that the original wording remain.</p>
