The security situation in the south of Afghanistan is more challenging than in the ISAF's current area of operation. The Taliban are still active in the area, as are drug traffickers.While United States casualties are a matter for the US, we are aware of three US casualties (but no other allied casualties) in Helmand Province.

My Lords, does the noble Baroness share the concerns expressed last week by the International Crisis Group that NATO’s effectiveness has been adversely affected,"““by national caveats on functions and acceptance of risk””?"
Can the noble Baroness assure us that no commitment of UK forces will be made in the south without clear agreement on rules of engagement with allies and without sufficient effective numbers of supporting forces?

My Lords, we are in continuous discussions with our NATO allies on the nature of any planned expansion to southern Afghanistan. That entails all the issues of engagement of which the noble Lord spoke. We believe that NATO is very capable of taking on a successful expansion in Afghanistan and organising that enlarged mission.

My Lords, the possible deployment of additional UK forces to Afghanistan as part of the International Security Assistance Force expansion across southern Afghanistan is pending discussions with allies and a final government decision. The timetable for deploying the UK-led NATO Allied Rapid Reaction Corps is May 2006 for nine months. The two are not directly connected.

My Lords, the noble Lord will know that we have made no final decisions on deployment to southern Afghanistan next year. Instead, as my right honourable friend the Minister of State for the Armed Forces explained in his Statement on 14 November, we are simply making prudent, timely and common-sense preparations for a potential deployment. The noble Lord will know that those preparations will include unit training, procuring equipment enhancements and early logistics work so that we can respond quickly should NATO decide to expand to the south. In response to his second question I would reply that many allies are planning to join the UK in delivering ISAF expansion to southern Afghanistan.

International Security Assistance Force currently numbers about 10,000 troops from 36 NATO and non-NATO troop contributing countries. Individual contributions by each country change on a regular basis due to the rotation of troops. Information on numbers of troops currently deployed is a matter for the troop contributing nations.

My Lords, I take my noble friend back to her answer concerning the opium trade. We in this House have been concerned about that for several years. Each time we mention it we are told how important the matter is. Is my noble friend’s evaluation that we are winning or losing that battle? What proportion of the Afghan gross national product is currently accounted for by the poppy harvest?

My Lords, I understand that it accounts for 50 per cent of the current Afghan gross national product. As my noble friend will know, it takes years to eradicate that level of production. However, he will also know that NATO already helps the Afghan counter narcotics authorities to train the Afghan police force and supports operations by the Afghan narcotics forces to facilitate reconstruction and economic development. We do not have a role in eradicating opium poppies in the fields; our role is one of support and helping to facilitate economic reconstruction and alternative agriculture.

My Lords, will the Minister please assure us that the Ministry of Defence will take a strong line in supporting NATO in its force generation process to persuade allies to provide supporting arms—which they are always rather reluctant to do—and, where they are providing teeth arms, to make sure that they are deployable in all the dangerous parts where they may be required to go?

My Lords, from these Benches we also add our sympathy to the family of Corporal Sherwood and wish the five of his colleagues who were so badly injured a speedy recovery. It is a sobering reminder that Afghanistan is also a very dangerous place for our troops. In a speech last week, the Supreme Allied Commander Europe said that the area which the British are taking over, the southern part, is among the two most dangerous areas in Afghanistan, coupled with the east, where United States forces are located. Can the Minister confirm that we are not only sending the troops, we are making the necessary arrangements regarding—as the noble Lord, Lord Astor, said—body armour and, most importantly, the necessary mobility in terms of armoured carriers, and, even more importantly, the necessary number of transport helicopters? Are we in negotiation with other NATO partners to provide those necessary pieces of equipment?

My Lords, I absolutely agree with the noble Lord that the security situation in Afghanistan is broadly stable but fragile. His question reflected that. I also agree that the operating environment in the south is less benign than in ISAF’s current area of deployment. However, I am afraid that I cannot go into the detail of capability and equipment because the Secretary of State has still to make an announcement to Parliament on the details of that.

The stopping of the opium trade is fundamental to Afghanistan’s future stability. The noble Lord is absolutely right to raise the importance of that. In our move southward we are certainly determined to make sure as much as we possibly can that our troops are supporting the Afghan national army and the Afghan police in their job of eradicating the poppy regime. As regards the warlords and the illegal militia who are still carrying weapons, we shall be working with the Afghans to ensure that those weapons are taken from them.

My Lords, first, it is with deep regret that the Ministry of Defence has confirmed the death of Corporal Steven Sherwood from the 1st Battalion, the Royal Gloucester, Berkshire and Wiltshire Light Infantry in a shooting incident in Mazar-e Sharif at the weekend. I should like to express on behalf of the Government and I am sure the House our deepest sympathy for the family and friends of the British soldier at this sad time.
To answer the Question, standard force generation procedures are being used by NATO for the expansion of the International Security Assistance Force in Afghanistan, centred on a combined joint statement of requirement issued by Supreme Headquarters Allied Powers Europe—SHAPE—and on force generation conferences at which participating nations offer elements of their armed forces against this requirement.

My Lords, from these Benches we also send our condolences to the family of Lance Corporal Steven Sherwood. We also hope that the five other soldiers seriously injured will make a speedy recovery. None of the soldiers was wearing body armour. Can the noble Baroness say whether soldiers on patrol will now be provided with body armour?
Returning to the question of force generation, the noble Baroness will be aware that the Secretary of State told Andrew Marr yesterday that our willingness to deploy further troops to Afghanistan was dependent on other countries agreeing to do the same. Does that mean that if our European NATO allies default on their undertakings we will withdraw from this vital commitment?

My Lords, as the noble Lord will know, for most of the time certainly in the past two years there has been a benign security environment in the north of Afghanistan. Therefore, in line with normal operating procedures for the area and to maintain a non-aggressive posture with the local population, which is our aim, body armour and helmets were not being worn by any of the personnel involved in the incident. These operating procedures are constantly being reviewed.
As for the noble Lord’s other question, as he will know, many allies are planning to join the UK in delivering ISAF expansion to the south of Afghanistan. The Canadians, for instance, already have a provincial reconstruction team in Kandahar and the Dutch are considering moving to Uruzgan. Other nations are planning possible deployments and I am sure that they will make public announcements when they are ready to do so.
