HC Deb 07 December 1998 vol 322 cc19-20W
Mr. Brake

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department what is his e-mail address. [62561]

Mr. Straw

Correspondence sent to me at the Home Office e-mail address, ho.gen@gtnet.gov.uk, is forwarded to me as necessary.

The Department is putting plans in place to connect selected parts of the office to the Government Secure Intranet (GSI) followed by full interconnection between the core network and the GSI in the first half of 1999. That will enable full e-mail between the office, Members of both Houses and members of the public.
