HL Deb 19 November 1998 vol 594 cc199-200WA
Lord Hardy

asked Her Majesty's Government:

What efforts are being undertaken to ensure that the sensitive information is kept secure within NATO operational planning; and whether security has been breached in recent months. [HL3686]

Lord Gilbert

NATO has mechanisms in place to ensure the security of sensitive information. Her Majesty's Government supports these mechanisms. Any breaches are a matter for the relevant NATO authorities. NATO does not comment on NATO-personnel security issues.
