To ask the Secretary of State for Defence what progress has been made in clearing sites in Iraq where cluster bombs were used; and if he will make a statement. [112531]
United Kingdom and other coalition explosive ordnance disposal (E0D) teams in the UK's area of responsibility have completed over 1,000 tasks and destroyed over 100,000 individual munitions. We do not record types of munitions destroyed.A full survey of sites contaminated with unexploded munitions is now under way. The survey is being conducted in concert with other coalition forces, nongovernmental organisations and demining companies. On average about 30 new EOD tasks are being identified each week.We cannot comment on progress made by other coalition partners, other than to reiterate that providing a safe, secure and risk free environment for the Iraqi people is a key aspect of restoration activity for all the coalition.
