§ The Attorney-GeneralIn respect of my noble Friend's Department, the answer to all three parts of the Question is10W "None". In respect of my own Department, so far as civil servants in London are concerned, the answer to all three parts of the Question is again "None"; in Belfast the Property Services Agency car pool provides vehicles to meet the Department's needs as they arise.
