February 25, 2005
FORMER British cabinet minister Clare Short is demanding a parliamentary probe into Attorney-General Peter Goldsmith's advice on war with Iraq.

Lord Goldsmith had breached the ministerial code by submitting a summary of his advice to senior ministers, Ms Short said overnight.

Two of Prime Minister Tony Blair's key allies were involved in drafting a ministerial answer issued in the peer's name, according to a leak published in the Guardian newspaper.

Ms Short said the draft had been shown to the Cabinet as it contemplated military action.
