My question is to the Prime Minister. I refer to recommendations made to the United States congress by General Petraeus concerning a draw down of US forces and also to the UK’s plan for the reduction of its forces in southern Iraq. Given that the Prime Minister before the last election promised not to increase Australian troops, before doing the opposite after the election, what is the Australian government’s plan now for the draw down of Australian combat forces in Iraq?
