Proceeding contribution from Chris Bryant (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 17 March 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill on Cluster Munitions (Prohibitions) Bill (HL) 2009-10.


Cluster Munitions (Prohibitions) Bill [Lords]

My experience of the armed forces is nowhere near as extensive as the hon. Gentleman's—mine relates only to the work of the armed forces parliamentary scheme—but he is right that our military obviously have a key role to play in changing the world view of other militaries around the world. Many such discussions take place, which is why I referred earlier to the significant role played by our defence attachés in other countries.
