  Iraq - Weapons of Mass Destruction Inquiry
  
  --- MOTION EFFECT ---
  
  <p>Those voting No rejected the motion put before Parliament, which read:</p>
  
  <blockquote>This House recalls the Prime Minister's assertion that Iraq possessed weapons of mass destruction capable of being used at 45 minutes' notice; further recalls the Government's contention that these weapons posed an imminent danger to the United Kingdom and its forces; notes that to date no such weapons have been found; and calls for an independent inquiry into the handling of the intelligence received, its assessment and the decisions made by ministers based upon it.</blockquote>
  
  <p>The new motion that was proposed and passed in its place read:</p>
  
  <blockquote>This House believes that the <a href="http://www.cabinetoffice.gov.uk/intelligence/">Intelligence and Security Committee</a> established by Parliament is the appropriate body to carry out any inquiry into intelligence relating to Iraq; and notes in relation to Iraq's disarmament obligations the terms of <a href="http://www.un.org/Docs/sc/unsc_resolutions03.html">United Nations Security Council Resolution 1483</a>.</blockquote>
