§ Mr. John DaviesThe standing security procedures provide for frequent checks to ensure that the arrangements24W for safeguarding official information are being complied with. Should investigation of the matter referred to by the hon. Member suggest any way in which the arrangements in those parts of the Department dealing with insurance companies should be altered or improved, action will of course, be taken immediately.
