Proceeding contribution from Patrick Mercer (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 18 December 2008. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Iraq.

Will he outline the contingency plans for the re-engagement of British troops? That assumes, of course, that the extra numbers relieved from there have not been sent to Afghanistan.
