HC Deb 12 July 1999 vol 335 c72W
36. Dr. Julian Lewis

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will make a statement about the role, status and functioning of F Branch of the Security Service since the publication of the Home Office's 1998 booklet about MI5. [89247]

Mr. Straw

I refer the hon. Member to my reply to his question on 30 June 1999,Official Report, column 186. The 1998 booklet "MI5 The Security Service" contains a great deal of information about the work of the Service and provides as much information as it is possible to disclose on the subject of interest to the hon. Member.
