Proceeding contribution from Nick Palmer (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 15 May 2007. It occurred during Opposition day on Armed Conflict (Parliamentary Approval).


Armed Conflict (Parliamentary Approval)

Does my right hon. Friend agree that although it is likely to increase troop morale if there is solid parliamentary support in advance or at the beginning of an action, it is likely to risk troop morale if the issue is gratuitously reviewed during an action? The suggestions made earlier that the House should regularly return to the issue are therefore perhaps misplaced.
