UNITED NATIONS ACTION ON IRAQ
That this House endorsed the Prime Minister's commitment to seeking a new UN resolution and mandate to enforce the process of inspecting and disabling any Iraqi weapons of mass destruction; recognises that Iraq has indicated that it will comply with existing UN resolutions; notes that Hans Blix has indicated that weapons inspectors could be ready to enter Iraq early in October and believes that no military action should be taken while arrangements are being made for this to take place; further believes that in the event of Iraq's failure to cooperate with the UN inspectors that no military action be taken without a mandate from the UN and a vote in the House; expresses continuing concern about the wider implications of any military action not specifically approved by the UN; and urges maximum effort towards the renewal of the Middle East peace process as an essential precondition towards stability and peace in the region.
