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
Over the past 10 days, we have genuinely listened to the views and criticisms expressed. We have rightly moved, and Members now have opportunity to make a judgment on that. That is why we are having a vote, and I urge Members to do so. The right hon. and learned Member for Kensington and Chelsea (Sir Malcolm Rifkind) said that we did not consult the armed forces. That is emphatically not true. The Chief of the Defence Staff, as the head of the armed forces, was consulted and was content with the form of the inquiry.
