  Iraq - UN Security Council Resolution 1441
  
  --- MOTION EFFECT ---
  
  
  <p>The motion before Parliament read:
  
  <blockquote>This House supports United Nations Security Council Resolution 1441 as unanimously adopted by the UN Security Council;[1] agrees that the Government of Iraq must comply fully with all provisions of the Resolution; and agrees that, if it fails to do so, the Security Council should meet in order to consider the situation and the need for full compliance.</blockquote>
  
  <p>The majority voted against adding the further conditions to the end, which would have read:</p> 
  
  <blockquote>...and believes that any decision that Iraq is in material breach of Resolution 1441 is for the UN Security Council as a whole to determine and that no military action to enforce Resolution 1441 should be taken against Iraq without a mandate from the UN Security Council; and further believes that no British forces should be committed to any such military action against Iraq without a debate in this House and a substantive motion in favour.</blockquote>
  
  <p>As it turned out, the second condition mentioned in these extra words was satisfied anyway four months later.[2]</p>
