Proceeding contribution from Bishop of Coventry (Bishops (affiliation)) in the House of Lords on Monday, 8 October 2007. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Iraq.


Iraq

My Lords, is the assumption implicit in the decision to withdraw 1,000 troops that there is a certain stability in the country which was not there before? Can the Leader of the House relate that new level of stability to the large number of internally displaced persons and the huge number of refugees living in, for example, Syria? Is the stability such that they will be able to return to their homes and begin to live a normal life again?
