Here we go with the weasel words:
Asked if Mr Blair would assist such an inquiry, a Downing Street spokesman said: "We don't believe any inquiry is needed, as we stand by our assessment that Saddam harboured an active WMD programme. We have had a conflict to fight as well as getting humanitarian aid to the people, but we are confident of finding weapons of mass destruction in the longer term."

Note the variation on the old claims. Then it was "has weapons of mass destruction." Now, it's "weapons of mass destruction programs."
