I think that I answered the hon. Gentleman’s point. My argument is that we can confidently rely on NATO’s nuclear deterrent because we are members of NATO and that we can trust our American allies.

I fully understand and acknowledge my hon. Friend’s constituency interest in these matters, and I accept what she said about the Defence Committee’s views. I shall make a similar argument myself. It is also argued that the independent strategic nuclear deterrent affects our status in the European Union and with...

It is a pleasure to follow the hon. Member for Woodspring (Dr. Fox). When he referred to the danger posed to us by Russia, I at first thought that he was using an old Conservative party speaking note, but as he developed the argument I could see that he was...

That this House supports the independent and democratic Iraqi trade union movement, mainly centred around the newly merged Iraqi Workers' Federation (IWF) and the Kurdish trade unions, which play an important role in the re-building of Iraq's devastated national economy and consolidating the current political process in order to create a democratic, united and federal state after years of repression and hardship at the hands of the deposed dictatorship of Saddam Hussein; is, therefore, deeply disturbed that on 8th August 2005 the Iraqi Council of Ministers issued decree 8750 which declared that union finances would be taken over by the government and that a new law on trade unionism would be developed by the government, without mentioning freedom of association, which is a basic human right and one of the fundamental conventions of the International Labour Organisation (ILO), or the involvement of the Iraqi trade union movement; is further disturbed at recent reports that the Iraqi government has replaced the leadership of the independent engineers' union with its own appointeees in a prima facie breach of freedom of association; welcomes the decision of Iraqi professional organisations to create jointly with the IWF an umbrella organisation to oppose decree 8750; congratulates the TUC for initiating global protests against decree 8750 and the International Confederation of Free Trade Unions for supporting the IWF's complaint formally requesting that the ILO intervene directly with the Iraqi government; and supports the IWF and others in all available democratic means to stop this undemocratic practice against Iraqi workers.

That this House condemns the decision of the Government to change the service debate on the Royal Air Force to a debate on events in the Gulf without making provision for a separate Royal Air Force debate; regards as incredible any suggestion that discussing these two subjects in one debate, on a motion that the House should adjourn, can do justice to either; notes that the last Royal Air Force debate was in May 1991 and that the July 1992 Defence Estimates have yet to be debated; is alarmed that a pattern of declining opportunities for Parliamentary debate appears to be developing at a time of immense change in British defence requirements and priorities; regards the Government's effective emasculation of the Royal Air Force debate as indicative of this pattern, and as an insult to the Royal Air Force as it approaches its 75th anniversary; and demands that provision be made for a Royal Air Force debate in Government time as soon as possible.

That this House notes that Appendix 8 of Lord Justice Bingham's Report into the supervision of the Bank of Credit and Commerce International, which deals with the intelligence agencies, has been withheld from Parliament; calls upon the Chancellor to publish those parts of the Report which disclose the extent to which BCCI accounts were used to fund and facilitate arms sales to Iraq and the knowledge of the Bank of England, United Kingdom intelligence agencies and Ministers that BCCI accounts were used for this purpose; believes that the House has a right to know if the Government knew, or ought to have known, that the Bank of England and the United Kingdom intelligence agencies were aware of the use of BCCI accounts and that United Kingdom intelligence agencies actively promoted or assisted in this trade; and calls upon the Chancellor and the Prime Minister to make a full statement to the House.
