HC Deb 21 December 2000 vol 360 c256W
Mr. McNamara

To ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland what progress has been made in identifying the source of military intelligence documents found in August in Clough, County Down; and how many people have been charged and convicted as a result of this raid. [142323]

Mr. Ingram

The documents in question were photocopies in very poor condition of what are believed to have been montages produced by the military in the mid-1970s. Relevant records are not available for this period and therefore the origins cannot be definitely ascertained. One person was arrested and two persons interviewed in relation to this discovery. However, insufficient evidence was available upon which to sustain charges.
