HC Deb 02 March 1967 vol 742 cc151-2W
Q13. Sir L. Heald

asked the Prime Minister whether there is now any warrant in force, under Section 4(1) of the Official Secrets Act 1920, requiring the production of all telegrams or of any specified class or description of telegrams.

The Prime Minister

It would be contrary to long-established practice to give this information.

Mr. Evelyn King

asked the Prime Minister to what extent the practice of reading private cables and telegrams by security officers has been extended since 11th November, 1965.

The Prime Minister

I have nothing to add to my previous replies to Questions on this subject.—[Vol. 741, c. 1432–3; Vol. 741, c. 1975–80; Vol. 742, c. 274–8.]
