lpv:spoken text	"I voted against the introduction of EU contract law as I do not believe Brussels should be making legislation where national legislation already exists. By introducing EU contract law and making it optional for businesses to choose domestic or European legislation, it confuses the system and will create legislative overlaps that may result in expensive tribunals. It is also likely that EU contract law will favour EU social and employment policy, such as the Working Time Directive, which has both proven highly unpopular and caused disruption in the UK for a range of essential industries and services. It is also highly likely that legislation that, for the time being, carries a discretional opt-in will later be made obligatory by the EU."@en1
