Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg called for a report into the 2003 Iraq war and Britain’s part in it to be released, after a newspaper suggested publication is to be delayed again.

No publication date has been set amid disputes over which documents can be disclosed. Yesterday’s Independent on Sunday newspaper reported the date for publication could be as late as next year.
