Proceeding contribution from Barry Gardiner (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 14 October 2009. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Afghanistan and Pakistan.


Afghanistan and Pakistan

At a meeting of the Pakistan-India friendship forum last weekend, I was struck by the number of people whose families live in the region who expressed their concern that the Government might pull out prematurely. Will the Prime Minister give an assurance that notwithstanding the process of Afghanisation, which many people who spoke to me support, he will maintain the support for the change in governance that those families so clearly want?
