Proceeding contribution from Lord Cameron of Chipping Norton (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 22 November 2010. It occurred during Ministerial statement on NATO Summit.


NATO Summit

My hon. Friend has served in Afghanistan and knows the country well, and he is completely right. As I have said, there are two elements involved. The first is the security forces training the police and the army, but on its own that does not provide enough capacity. We also need good governance, and one feature that we should look at closely is the progress of better governance in Helmand province itself. Governor Mangal has done an extremely good job there and is well supported by the British, and it is important to have good governors in place to ensure the stability that will enable us to leave.
