HC Deb 12 November 1957 vol 577 c40W
Captain Kerby

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food how many security officers are employed by his Department; what was the cost during 1956; and what are their duties.

Mr. Amory

No officer in my Department is employed full time on security duties. The Office Controller and his staff are responsible, among other duties, for security as regards premises, equipment and official documents; personnel security is dealt with through other officers in the Establishment Divisions as part of their normal duties.
