“In the first part of efforts to renegotiate Britain’s relationship with the European Union, ministers will announce plans to claw back the powers. Theresa May, the Home Secretary, will give MPs details of proposals to opt out of 133 EU measures covering justice, home affairs and the police by next spring. Some of the measures that are seen to be in the national interest will then be opted back into, in a complex process, but ‘more than two thirds’ will disappear permanently from British law. The move follows last week’s unanimous Commons vote in favour of moves to hold an ‘in-out’ referendum on Britain’s membership of the EU by 2017.”
