HC Deb 02 February 1995 vol 253 c855W
Mr. Peter Griffiths

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence how many reports he has received of facsimile messages to and from royal naval establishments being sent to civilian addresses as a result of mis-dialling; and what proposals he has to eliminate the problem.

Mr. Soames

Three messages containing management information have been reported as having reached The News, Portsmouth as a consequence of mis-dialling a Plymouth terminal number. The terminal number in question has been changed, users are being advised and reminded to take care that the correct number has been dialled before material is transmitted.
