HC Deb 12 June 1980 vol 986 cc270-1W
Mr. Ennals

asked the Prime Minister whether she will institute a further inquiry into security leaks at Government Communications Headquarters, subsequent to the inquiry carried out by Sir James Waddell, in view of the disappearance of a further classified document and other breaches of security procedures.

The Prime Minister

I do not think that there are sufficient grounds for a further inquiry.

Mr. Ennals

asked the the Prime Minister whether she is satisfied that the recommendations contained in the report of the inquiry into alleged security leaks at Government Communications Headquarters, carried out by Sir James Waddell and others, have been fully put into effect.

The Prime Minister

As I told the House on 20 May, the requisite improvements were put into operation. A number of these have yet to be fully completed, but I am satisfied that there has been no undue delay.
