Oral question asked in the House of Lords, by Lord Howell of Guildford (Conservative). It was answered on Thursday, 20 March 2008.
Iraq: UK Forces
- Question
- My Lords, just for the record, does the Minister accept that we on this side share the view of the noble Lord, Lord McNally, that there should be an inquiry, but we believe that it should be now? We owe it to our troops to go ahead with that inquiry at the earliest opportunity and it should not be delayed.
- Answer
-
My Lords, we owe it to our troops to concentrate on supporting them in the actions that they are taking at the moment. If we have an inquiry, as the Government have made clear there will be, it should be at the appropriate stage, and that is not now.
