Proceeding contribution from Lord Hannay of Chiswick (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 24 March 2009. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Counterterrorism.


Counterterrorism

My Lords, has the Minister read the Prime Minister’s article in the Observer last Sunday which trailed this Statement? If so, did he notice that the Prime Minister said that UK support for conflict prevention and stabilising fragile states was an integral part of our counterterrorism strategy? Does he believe that when he wrote that, the Prime Minister was aware that the British Government are in fact cutting back their support for those two matters? If so, will he now reconsider those cuts?
