HC Deb 22 January 1981 vol 997 c232W
Mr. Arthur Lewis

asked the Minister for the Civil Service whether he will extend the practice now operating of supplying to ex-Prime Ministers a car and driver on security grounds to all ex-Ministers and all hon. Members in view of their security risks.

Mr. Hayhoe

No. Special arrangements for the use of Government car service cars by ex-premiers are made only after an assessment, by the security authorities, of the threat against the individual concerned.
