The below Parliamentary question was asked by Philip Davies on 2014-06-11.

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, which powers he is seeking to repatriate from the EU.

Mr David Lidington

As the Prime Minister, my right hon. Friend the Member for Witney (Mr Cameron) said in May, Brussels has got too big, too bossy, too interfering. It should be nation states wherever possible, Europe only where necessary.

Our reform priorities are to make the EU more democratically accountable, more competitive and more flexible.
