The Prime Minister
I endorse my hon. Friend’s comments, and we will go at pace to move on the commitments we made yesterday.

The Prime Minister has said today that we will not be a rule taker because we can discuss the rules in this place, but discussion is not the same as control. Can he confirm that he has not ceded control to disapply or diverge from regulations in Europe?
