HC Deb 11 July 2000 vol 353 c476W
Mr. Maude

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if the Government's assessment of UK threat levels to, and protective measures for, UK diplomatic staff in Greece has changed since the date of its submission on this subject to the Foreign Affairs Committee. [129758]

Mr. Battle

[holding answer 7 July 2000]: We increased the level of our threat assessment to British Diplomatic and Military interests throughout mainland Greece in the immediate aftermath of the assassination of Brigadier Saunders. No further change has been made since then. Measures to increase security are being implemented following the visit of a specialist security adviser.
