§ 20. Mr. LyonsTo ask the Secretary of State for Defence what role British troops will have in a post-conflict Iraq. [93187]
§ Mr. IngramThere is no inevitability about military action against Iraq; this question is therefore hypothetical at this stage. What I can say is that we take very seriously our current and potential responsibilities towards the Iraqi people. In the aftermath of any conflict, Britain would remain at the forefront of efforts to help the Iraqi people.
