Proceeding contribution from Elfyn Llwyd (Plaid Cymru) in the House of Commons on Monday, 16 April 2007. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Iraq.
Iraq
On behalf of Plaid Cymru and the Scottish National party, I associate myself fully with the Secretary of State’s expressions of condolence. Many of us believe that the Secretary of State should have declined to accede to the MOD request immediately he received it. Does it not presuppose a problem with military discipline? Should he not have gone back to the top brass and told them to remind the young people of their obligations and order them not to speak to the media?
