Adam Price: To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs on which dates during December 2003 the UK special
representative in Iraq was acting Coalition Provisional Authority administrator. [212313]
Mr. Rammell: Whenever ambassador Bremer, Coalition Provisional Authority (CPA) Administrator, was absent from Iraq, his US deputy
took charge and made decisions on his behalf. In May 2003, the UK Government appointed a UK Special Representative for Iraq to work
alongside ambassador Bremer, but as an independent presence with no formal role within the CPA's hierarchy and with no formal legal
decision- making power. However, from 23 to 30 December 2003, when both ambassador Bremer and his deputy were absent from
Iraq, the UK Special Representative looked after CPA affairs. There were neither policy decisions made about Iraq, nor orders signed
during this period.

Alan Simpson: To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what involvement the UK Government had in the
drafting of Order 81, issued by the Coalition Provisional Authority in Iraq, which prohibits the saving of seed by Iraqi farmers.
[216068]
Mr. Rammell: UK Government officials in Iraq, as members of the Coalition Provisional Authority (CPA), and other officials in the UK
were consulted and invited to comment during the drafting of CPA Order 81. The Order was the subject of consultation and
co-ordination with the Iraqi Governing Council, and was consistent with the needs identified by the Special Representative of the UN
Secretary-General for the development of Iraq and its transition from a centrally planned economy to a market economy.
The provisions of CPA Order 81 concern the registration and protection of intellectual property rights in new plant varieties. The
Order should not affect the ability of Iraqi farmers to save seeds from traditional sources. Any restrictions would relate only to
patented biotech inventions or protected plant varieties. This is the normal effect of introducing such an intellectual property
law. To secure protection, plant varieties would have needed to have been shown to be new, distinct from other varieties in common
knowledge, uniform and stable. Farmers will have a choice of sources for their seed supply: they may choose to continue using
current sources, such as saving their own seeds of traditional and unprotected varieties, or may choose to buy seeds which are
subject to patent or plant variety rights protection.
The implementation, application and interpretation of all CPA orders is now a matter for the Iraqis. The newly elected Transitional
National Assembly, together with the Iraqi Transitional Government, have the power to overturn or rewrite any existing CPA Orders
that they feel do not address the needs and rights of the Iraqi people.

Harry Cohen: To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what assessment he has made of the extent to which
the Coalition Provisional Authority complied with United Nations resolution 1483, concerning control of Iraq's oil revenues; what
assessment he has made of whether those funds were independently monitored and fully accounted for; whether the auditor appointed in
April 2004 has reported; and if he will make a statement. [211392]
Mr. MacShane: United Nations Security Council Resolution (UNSCR) 1483 of 22 May 2003 called for Iraq's oil revenues to be
used in a transparent manner for purposes benefiting the Iraqi people, and export sales of petroleum and petroleum products to be
made consistent with international market best practice. An International Advisory and Monitoring Board (IAMB) was also established
to ensure the Development Fund for Iraq (DFI) was used in a transparent manner for the purposes set out in UNSCR 1483.
On 14 December 2004 the IAMB released its report covering Coalition Provisional Authority (CPA) management of the DFI from
22 May 2003 to the end of occupation on 28 June 2004. This was based on two audit reports to the IAMB prepared by the
external auditor (KPMG). Reports are available on the lAMB's website at www.iamb.info.
Both audit reports conclude that, with the exception of smuggling, "the DFI Statement of Cash Receipts and Payment presents fairly,
in all material respects, the receipts and payments of the DFI". The IAMB report recognises that "all known oil proceeds, reported
frozen assets, and transfers from the Oil-for-Food Programme have been properly and transparently accounted for in the DPI".

Lynne Jones: To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs pursuant to his answer of 8 July 2004,
Official Report, column 846W, on Iraq, whether Iraq's oil production was metered during Coalition Provision Authority rule; and how
much oil was produced by Iraq during the Coalition's tenure. [185499]
Mr. Rammell: When the Coalition Provisional Authority (CPA) took office there were no functioning meters in the Iraqi oil system.
The CPA oil team had been pressing for meters to be installed as a matter of urgency, but as of 28 June--when the CPA
dissolved-- the issue remained outstanding. However oil exports, either by pipeline to Ceyhan in Turkey or by tanker through the
Arabian Gulf, were metered as they passed into the receiving tanks.
Oil production during the CPA's tenure for each month from June 2003 to April 2004 is shown in table 1. Weekly data from May to the
beginning of July 2004 is shown in table 2.
