Report of the Iraq Inquiry

Proceeding contribution from John Baron (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 14 July 2016. It occurred during Debate on Report of the Iraq Inquiry.

I am listening carefully to what my right hon. Friend is saying, but this is not just an issue of how best to encourage communication and expertise within the system; Chilcot was also saying that there was a lack of investment and proper sighting of events on the ground. That can be put right only through long-term investment to ensure that we are better sighted, so that we have a better idea of what is actually happening on the ground and the consequences of our actions. Does he agree that that is another important lesson to take from the Chilcot report?
