Comments on: The Coalition will not sign the new EU Rules to combat Human Trafficking 2010/12/14/the-coalition-will-not-sign-the-new-eu-rules-to-combar-human-trafficking/ London MEP European Parliament Tue, 01 Mar 2016 16:57:14 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: Daniel Oxley 2010/12/14/the-coalition-will-not-sign-the-new-eu-rules-to-combar-human-trafficking/#comment-3700 Tue, 14 Dec 2010 18:33:07 +0000 ?p=13034#comment-3700 I am no fan of the Coalition but I would not jump to condemn them for failing to back more EU regulation.

What is the point of more regulation? They either get it wrong or it is not implemented. Earlier this month, Mary informed us about the EU regulations concerning passengers whose flights are cancelled. She explained that members of the public are entitled to re-imbursement or re-routing and compensation of 250 euros.

She told us about one of her constituents who did not manage to get his 250 euros. The regulation was plainly a waste of time and money and I am no more confident that the EU will regulate effectively against human trafficking than they have regulated against anything else.
