Mr. Cryer

asked the Prime Minister what is the annual cost of the security and intelligence agencies referred to in paragraph 16 of appendix B of the Franks committee report.

The Prime Minister

It has been the practice of successive Governments not to give details of such expenditure.

Mr. Cryer

asked the Prime Minister what is the annual cost of the current intelligence groups referred to in paragraph 15 of appendix B of the Franks report; and to which Ministers the groups report.

The Prime Minister

I have nothing to add on these points to the information contained in annex B of the report of the Franks committee.
