   <p> 
   Amendment proposed [27 November] : No. 65, in page 1, line 12, at the end to insert the words

  <p>
  That is not an intention to replace the NATO treaty or to improve the security of Europe's nation states. The aim is to assert the identity of this creature, the European Union, on the international scene. If there were ever a case of poor motivation for a dangerous act, that is it.
   
  
  <p>Question put,  That the amendment be made:--
  <p>The Committee divided:  Ayes 133, Noes 328.
