HC Deb 13 December 1978 vol 960 c260W
Mrs. Renée Short

asked the Prime Minister if members of Royal Commissions are required to sign the Official Secrets Act.

The Prime Minister:

No central records are kept on this matter. I understand that it is not the usual practice to ask members of Royal Commissions to sign an Official Secrets Act declaration, though members of at least one Royal Commission were asked to do so.
