The EUs heads of government reached agreement on the new Treaty at the European Council on 17-18 June. The provisional text was put before the House [as Cm 6289] on 19 July. The final texts in all the EUs 21 official languages are being prepared for the signature of the Treaty in Rome on 29 October. To assist this debate, and wider discussion in the country, I published earlier today a White Paper which sets out the main elements of the new Treaty, and analyses how the Government delivered on the negotiating objectives which we outlined in our White Paper of September last year.
