Gulf War Symptom Victims

EDM number 1462 in 2001-02, proposed by Paul Tyler on 18/06/2002.

That this House congratulates the Royal British Legion Gulf War Group on bringing the United States Congressional Sub-committee on National Security, Veterans' Affairs and International Relations to the House; welcomes the Sub-committee's exhaustive investigative hearings on 18th June; urges Her Majesty's Government to take full advantage of US research work in this field; notes the recent Ministerial answers to parliamentary questions tabled by the honourable Member for North Cornwall and the honourable Member for Yeovil which suggest that the Ministry of Defence still denies the existence of specific Gulf War Syndrome illnesses; and calls on the Prime Minister to constitute a full public inquiry into the causes and treatment of ill health amongst Gulf War veterans.

This motion has been signed by a total of 59 MPs.
