Proceeding contribution from Adam Price (Plaid Cymru) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 25 March 2009. It occurred during Opposition day on Iraq War Inquiry.


Iraq War Inquiry

The right hon. Gentleman is absolutely right about the need for an inquiry now. Does he agree that it is important that the accountability of that inquiry runs to Parliament and not to the Executive, given that Parliament was, in my view, given misleading information in the past? I remember the former Prime Minister saying, "If only you could see some of the things that come across my desk, you would vote for the war." If only we had seen them, because then more hon. Members would have voted against.
