Dear all Hans Blix has presented his last report to the Security Council. 'I naturally feel sadness that three and a half months of work carried out in Iraq have not brought the assurances needed about the absence of weapons of mass destruction or other proscribed items in Iraq, that no more time is available for our inspections and that armed action now seems imminent.' http://www.un.org/Depts/unmovic/blix19mar.html He also presented the Security Council with the draft work programme including Key Disarmament Tasks for Iraq (clearly and precisely defined). This was given to the UNSC on Monday - and could have perhaps had an influence on the Commons debate if it had been available there and MPs had been briefed on its significance. I don't know whether it was publicly available before today. http://www.un.org/Depts/unmovic/documents/workpr og.html It's a PDF file.
