The ex?Cabinet Secretary's 200?page report said Prime Minister Tony Blair's September 2002 dossier should not have included its controversial claim that Saddam Hussein could deploy WMD within 45 minutes.
And it said Mr Blair's statement to the Commons on the dossier may have "reinforced the impression" that there was "fuller and firmer" intelligence behind the assessments in the dossier than was actually the case.

The report also said the Government's controversial dossier went to the "outer limits" of the available intelligence.

So does that mean the dossier was 'sexed up'?
