Proceeding contribution from Baroness Royall of Blaisdon (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 15 June 2009. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Iraq.

Iraq

My Lords, I am grateful to my noble friend for reminding me that, throughout the period when she was standing at this Dispatch Box, she did not on any occasion allege any link between al-Qaeda and the invasion of Iraq. To my knowledge, I do not think the Prime Minister made any link either. I would reassure my noble friend that the committee will consider the diplomatic exchanges with our allies and Iraq’s neighbours before, and also in the period following, the invasion.
