Iraq Inquiry

Put that there was an article in The Spectator that alleged that Lord Mandelson made a deal with the Prime Minister to ensure that the Iraq hearings would be held in private, the PMS said that that had been categorically denied by Lord Mandelson s office. There was a flaw in the article s thesis, which was that we were not having the Iraq inquiry in secret. We would deny any suggestion that the Prime Minister had done any sort of deal.

Put that the Prime Minister originally announced that the Iraq inquiry would be held in private, the PMS said that we set out our detailed position last Thursday in the Prime Minister s letter to Sir John Chilcot and it was not the case that the Iraq inquiry was going to be held in secret; the whole premise of that particular thesis in The Spectator article was flawed.
