§ Mr. Richard ShepherdTo ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if he will list those 129W international organisations from which the United Kingdom Government obtain information in confidence, as referred to in paragraphs 28 and 51 of the White Paper on "Reform of Section 2 of the Official Secrets Act 1911" (Cm. 408); and if he will make a statement.
§ Mr. MellorWe do not think that it would be practicable to compile a list as requested. Circumstances might arise in which we receive information of the kind specified in paragraphs 28 and 51 of the White Paper from a number of international organisations.
