My question is to the Prime Minister. Does the Prime Minister recall setting a time frame for the withdrawal of Australian troops from Iraq in 2003, when he said that Australian troops would remain in Iraq for only a matter of months and not years? Why did the Prime Minister set a time frame for the withdrawal of Australian troops from Iraq in 2003 but not set such a time frame today?
