Proceeding contribution from Lord Astor of Hever (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 4 October 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Armed Forces Bill.


Armed Forces Bill

The noble Viscount, Lord Slim, makes an important point. We have no plans for increased casualties, and indeed the aspiration is to be out of Afghanistan in a combat role by the end of 2014. If, unfortunately, there are increased casualties, we will respond to that as best we can.
