The government had been urged to hold the inquiry in public, but Mr Brown said he must take into account national security, and avoid damaging Britain’s military capability.
It was designed on a similar basis, he added, to the Franks inquiry into the 1982 Falklands War, and it would aim to identify “lessons learned”.
He added it would hear evidence in private so witnesses could be “as candid as possible”.
The prime minister said: “No British documents and no British witness will be beyond the scope of the inquiry.”
He said the final report would reveal “all but the most secret of information” and the “unprecedented” process would be “fully independent of government”.
But the prime minister was jeered by Conservative MPs when he announced the inquiry would take a year to report – beyond the date of the next general election.
Tory leader David Cameron said there was a danger the public would believe the process had been “fixed to make sure the government avoids having to face up to any inconvenient conclusions”.
Mr Cameron said membership of the inquiry “looks quite limited” and complained its terms of reference were “restrictive”, adding it should have taken place sooner.
