Under the non-Government motions on the Order Paper, the university Senators have tabled motion No. 28 regarding the obligations under the Geneva Convention of the occupying forces in Iraq to the people of that country. In view of the fact that it appears that these people are being shabbily treated at present and that Mr. Rumsfeld has threatened to use muscle – I would have thought that using brains would have been more appropriate – to deal with the situation there. Will the Leader ask the Minister for Foreign Affairs to come before the House next week to discuss this issue?
