mockney piers Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 "As for the Saville Inquiry, whilst it was announced in Jan 1998, first submissions were not given until March 2000. The Good Friday Agreement had been in force since April 10th 1998."Well quite, so it was part of the negotiations resulting in the good friday agreement. Had it not then come about, such bad faith almost certainly would have been a stumbling block in continued co-operation would it not?But we definitely digress. As I said I don't think this is about Iraq per se, but about scrupulous governance.

Santerme Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 In the light of some research om the good old web, I revise slightly my opinion on the value of Saville...I still think it was a waste of money, but I understand better why it was agreed to.So I learned somethting new today, cheers MP.

Huguenot Posted June 3, 2010 Share Posted June 3, 2010 Still going on, based on the irrational assumption that transparency is either a prerequisite for good governance, or in the national interest.Someone's gotta do the dirty jobs ;-)Follow the bullshit here...
