David Norris (Independent)

I welcome the fact that the motion on Ingrid Betancourt would be passed unanimously and I congratulate those who have persisted in pushing this matter. I gather the motion is in the name of all of us. It is a matter I raised some years ago, but others have brought it to this successful conclusion and I congratulate and compliment them.

In the light of this agreement and the easy passage of this motion, I ask the Leader to consider, not of course today but at the opening of the next session, the similar passage of No. 11, motion 8, which is a motion about the production, stockpiling and use of cluster munitions.
