Proceeding contribution from Lord Hague of Richmond (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 29 June 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Africa and the Middle East.
Africa and the Middle East
I do not sense that that is the general view in the House. Our military mission in Libya continues to be defined by the UN resolutions. If we were not undertaking any and all of the military actions that we are, Colonel Gaddafi would be able to intensify his campaign of killing and harassing the population of Libya. It is entirely in accordance with the vote of this House in March and with UN Security Council resolution 1973 that we are doing what we are doing in Libya. I do not therefore consider that it requires a fresh vote in the House.
