HC Deb 12 March 1987 vol 112 c274W
4. Mr. Mallon

asked the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland if he has had any meetings with the officer commanding the Ulster Defence Regiment within the past six weeks concerning security.

Mr. Scott

Although my right hon. Friend has not recently met the brigadier commanding the Ulster Defence Regiment, he has regular meetings with the General Officer Commanding in Nothern Ireland and the Chief Constable to discuss policy issues of common concern in the security field.
