"I am supporting these moves in parliament because the House of Commons is entitled to hold ministers to account for the decision to go to war and the failure to have proper plans for its aftermath."
"The financial, military and diplomatic consequences for the United Kingdom have been immense. So far we have had to rely on a variety of leaked documents but parliament and the public have the right to a full account of the workings of government both before and after the decision to invade."
That this House believes that there should be a select committee of seven honourable Members, being members of Her Majesty's Privy Council, to review the way in which the responsibilities of Government were discharged in relation to Iraq and all matters relevant thereto, in the period leading up to military action in that country in March 2003 and in its aftermath.
