The EU Select Committee of the United Kingdom House of Lords published a report on the 25 March 2015 on the results of the UK Government's Review of the Balance of Competences between the United Kingdom and the European Union. At the time of the launch of the Review in 2012 the UK Government had said that the Review would be 'most extensive analysis of the impact of UK membership of the EU ever undertaken'. The House of Lords report welcomed the Review as an ambitious piece of work, but criticised the Government for a failure to draw the 32 reports completed in the Review together in a final analysis; to promote the Review effectively; and for a lack of clarity on its true costs. In an interview with The Observer on the 29 March 2015 the chairman of the EU Select Committee Lord Boswell said that none of the 32 chapters of the Review 'demonstrated that too much power resided in Brussels'. |
