HC Deb 25 July 1991 vol 195 c926W
Mr. Corbyn

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence (1) what contingency measures are in place to deal with the environmental damage that could arise from a decision to bomb Iraq's nuclear plants;

(2) what contingency plans there are to evacuate civilians or offer assistance in the event of a decision being made to bomb Iraq's nuclear plants.

Mr. Archie Hamilton

We look to Iraq to comply in full with the terms of Security Council resolution 687. I am not prepared to speculate about any action which may be necessary to ensure Iraqi compliance.
