My question is addressed to the Prime Minister. Given that the Prime Minister has provided Commissioner Cole with no powers to investigate how the $300 million paid to Saddam Hussein’s regime was used, will the Prime Minister now establish an independent investigation into: (1) where the money went; (2) what the money was used for, including the question of funding Palestinian suicide bombers, Saddam Hussein’s military and the current insurgency; and (3) how much of the money remains unaccounted for, given that AWB’s kickbacks to Iraq continued for 18 months after the collapse of Saddam Hussein’s regime?

The premise on which the question is based is false; therefore, the rest of the question is also false.
