- Meeting date: 30 January 2008
You have often commented that EU rules, or interpretations of them, are damaging to the public perceptions of the EU. Would you join One London in calling upon Hackney Council to cease its counterproductive case to criminalise Mrs Janet Devers for selling fruit and vegetables by the pound, relying upon an interpretation of EU law. The EU Commission has recently made clear that it does not believe that use of imperial scales is illegal under EU law.
