Proceeding contribution from Robert Halfon (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 17 March 2011. It occurred during Debate on North Africa and the Middle East.


North Africa and the Middle East

Given what the right hon. Gentleman has just said, does he accept that his Government got it wrong in having such close relations with Gaddafi, and in facilitating business and academic links? When he was responsible for the Export Credits Guarantee Department, he allowed defence equipment to go to Libya. Does he agree that that was a big mistake?
