Mr. Speaker, in another damaging revelation, we learned today that the government was warned last year about the treatment of detainees handed over to Afghan prisons.
Human Rights Watch wrote to NATO, copying our foreign affairs minister, on November 28, 2006, saying:
We have received credible reports about mistreatment of detainees...in some cases the treatment amounted to torture.
Why did the Conservatives hide this memo for almost five months?
