Proceeding contribution from Baroness Harman (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 28 January 2010. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.
Business of the House
We do not accept that the use of force in Iraq was unlawful, and the issue was before the House when it voted to support the use of force. The Attorney-General at the time, Lord Goldsmith, gave evidence to the Chilcot inquiry yesterday, setting out the processes whereby he, as Attorney-General, was the authoritative adviser to the Government on that issue. What happens after the inquiry has reported is a matter best considered when we have had an opportunity to see its substantive report.
