HC Deb 10 April 2003 vol 403 c341W
David Winnick

To ask the Prime Minister what plans he has to provide medical facilities for civilians, including children, who have lost limbs during the conflict, when Iraq is fully liberated; and if he will make a statement. [108545]

The Prime Minister

We are supporting the International Committee of the Red Cross in its efforts to keep health systems functioning during the conflict.

The provision of a comprehensive health system for the people of Iraq will be a priority for the post-conflict international rehabilitation effort. We will play a significant role in this process working alongside the UN, international financial institutions and nongovernmental organisations.
