Proceeding contribution from Baroness Ashton of Upholland (Labour) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 12 December 2007. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Afghanistan.


Afghanistan

My Lords, I am grateful to the noble Lord. We try to strike a balance. We want to get people out to Afghanistan as quickly as possible and where we can we make sure that we provide the training that we think is necessary before they go and, if not, we support them in theatre.
