HL Deb 15 October 1996 vol 574 c207WA
Lord Lester of Herne Hill

asked Her Majesty's Government:

Whether effective measures have been taken to combat the risk of terrorist bomb attacks upon trains stopping at Ashford and Calais en route for the Channel Tunnel; if so, what measures have been taken.

Viscount Goschen

Appropriate security measures have been put in place at Ashford International Station. It is not our practice to reveal details of the particular measures. Security at Calais-Fretun is the responsibility of the French Government.
