Proceeding contribution from Bill Rammell (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 24 June 2009. It occurred during Opposition day on Iraq Inquiry.


Iraq Inquiry

As my hon. Friend says, the inquiry needs to be independent, and, in the way that it is structured, it will be independent. It will have the force of that independence and it will get at the facts. That is what we propose. It is not about indicting individuals, but about understanding collectively what went right as well as what went wrong, and ensuring that we all learn lessons—Government, Parliament, the armed forces, police and development and humanitarian experts alike.
