§ Mr. Simon HughesTo ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs to which European countries officials of his Department are prohibited from travelling without obtaining special permission or with other qualifications; and when he next intends to review this list.
§ Mr. Lennox-BoydIt has been long-standing practice to give advice to all staff on the problems they may face in travelling to certain countries, and to require them to give notice of such visits, particularly if they have access to classified information. On security grounds we do not publish the list of countries concerned, but it is kept regularly under review.
