Proceeding contribution from Baroness Royall of Blaisdon (Labour) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 14 October 2009. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Afghanistan and Pakistan.


Afghanistan and Pakistan

My Lords, I do not have a timescale and cannot give the noble and learned Lord one. We just have to wait until those conditions are met. However, I am confident, because of the conversations that have taken place between the Prime Minister and his counterparts and between the chiefs of staff and their counterparts that, unless we were confident that those conditions would be met, the Prime Minister would not have made this Statement today.
