Proceeding contribution from Lord Drayson (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 26 February 2007. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Afghanistan: UK Forces.


Afghanistan: UK Forces

My Lords, the noble Lord makes an interesting suggestion, and I shall go away, think about it and discuss it with my colleagues. It would raise difficult ethical questions in considering how to balance those countries that provide troops and assets and that are in harm’s way, taking losses and casualties, against those that provide finance. However, I shall take away and consider the noble Lord’s suggestion with regard to practicalities, and respond.
