Proceeding contribution from Geoffrey Hoon (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 15 December 2005. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.


Business of the House

I have made it clear, and I repeat, that the Government have set out their position and the United States Secretary of State has set out the position of the United States Administration. The hon. Gentleman should accept those indications as a recognition of the very detailed research that has been undertaken both here and in the United States. He should also accept that neither the United States Government nor this Government accept the idea that people should be transported around the world to be tortured. I hope that he will think again and withdraw that allegation.
