Mr. Donohoe

To ask the Secretary of State for Education if he will make a statement on the use of private detective agencies and security companies by his Department.

The Department makes no use of private detective agencies. In so far as security companies are concerned, I refer the hon. Member to the reply that I gave to the hon. Member for Walsall, South (Mr. George) on 22 April 1994,Official Report, column 677.
