RETURN OF RESIDENTS TO FALLUJAH

That this House condemns the decision taken by the interim Government of Iyad Allawi to take DNA samples, fingerprints and retina scans of the residents of Fallujah when they are allowed to return to their homes on Christmas Eve; regrets the decisions to insist that residents have to wear badges, and to treat refusal as an offence; and believes that these requirements have sinister historical overtones.
