VOTE ON THE WAR WITH IRAQ (Amendment 1)
after `Minister', insert `whilst also engaging their critical faculties in order to, amongst other things, assess for themselves the reliability of the evidence presented by the Government, the contradictory information arising from the UN weapons inspectors and the consideration of the implications of military action upon regional stability and the potential for it to stimulate future acts of terrorism.'.
