Does the Secretary of State for Defence recall telling the Defence Committee some 10 hours before the bombing began:

Our military objective—our clear, simple, military objective—will be to reduce the Serbs' capability to repress the Albanian population and thus to avert a humanitarian disaster", and further stating:

I would like to stress that whatever action is taken, that action is taken on behalf of all NATO allies with the aim—the clear and, I believe, justified aim—of averting a humanitarian disaster."?

Will the right hon. Gentleman report to the House his assessment of the effectiveness of that strategy in delivering that aim?
