Butler report- you have to listen to the emphasis on the word "SOUGHT"
at exactly the 20:28 mark at the following.
Video of the Bulter Report Press Conference is available from the BBC
http://www.bath.ac.uk/library/news/butler.html

“The British Government has learned that Saddam Hussein recently sought significant quantities of uranium from Africa .”
-Jan. 28, 2003 George W. Bush

By extension, we conclude also that the statement in President Bush’s State of the Union Address of 28 January 2003 that “The British Government has learned that Saddam Hussein recently sought significant quantities of uranium from Africa” was well-founded
Right Honorable Lord

Watch the video-he clearly emphasizes "SOUGHT"

1. Joe Wilson talked about a meeting between an Iraqi delegation and...
...the Nigeriens which was assumed to be requested by Iraq for the purpose of obtainiong uranium. The delegation was given an audience but the PM purposely steered the conversation with them away from any discussion of yellowcake. It was clear that nothing ever came of the episode.

The information about this meeting was, in fact, a new development, not referred to by any other informants. Wilson gave it to his CIA debriefer, and this is stated in the Senate Intelligence Panel's report.
