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, Members of this House are saying, "We want the inquiry, we want it now, we want it to report tomorrow", and then everybody is telling me all the different things that they want to be in the inquiry. This committee is going to be faced with some very difficult challenges and some extraordinary time constraints. It is up to the committee how it structures its work. It may want to come back in two parts—I do not know; that is a matter for the committee. Many of the issues that the noble Baroness raises are inextricably linked so the committee may wish to see them in the round, as it were.
