Proceeding contribution from Tom Levitt (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 18 December 2008. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Iraq.


Iraq

May I add to the comments of my right hon. Friend the Member for Cynon Valley (Ann Clwyd)? I also welcome today's statement. While my right hon. Friend the Prime Minister rightly focused on the security situation and the economic development of Iraq, will he say a little more about the development of civil society in Iraq, and in particular about the way in which the Department for International Development, British development non-governmental organisations and possibly even British volunteers in future may help to contribute to social cohesion and an effective civil society in Iraq?
