[Until 7.00 pm]

|

That this House, while welcoming the announcement by the Government of an Inquiry into the war in Iraq, believes that the
proceedings of the Committee of Inquiry should whenever possible be held in public and that the membership of the Committee
should be wider and more diverse than the Government has proposed, and calls on the Government to revise its proposals for
the Inquiry to meet these and other objections raised by hon. Members and to submit proposed terms of reference for it to
the House on a substantive motion for full debate and scrutiny.
|
|
As an Amendment to Mr David Cameron’s proposed Motion (Iraq inquiry):
|
|
(a)
|
|
Line 1, leave out from ‘House’ to end and add ‘welcomes the announcement by the Government of a wide ranging and independent inquiry
to establish the lessons to be learnt from the United Kingdom’s engagement in Iraq, which will consider the run-up to the
conflict, the military action and reconstruction; recognises the importance of allowing the families of those who gave their
lives in Iraq to express their views about the nature and procedures of the inquiry; notes the Prime Minister’s request that
the chairman of the inquiry consult party leaders and chairs of the relevant parliamentary committees on the scope for taking
evidence under oath and holding sessions in public; and commends the proposal by the chair of the inquiry to hold as much
of the proceedings as possible in public without compromising national security or the inquiry’s ability to report thoroughly
and without delay.’.
|
|
The Ninth Report from the Public Administration Select Committee, Session 2008-09, on the Iraq Inquiry, HC 721, is relevant.
