HC Deb 07 July 2003 vol 408 c640W
Harry Cohen

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will call for a report on the(a) cost and (b) outcome of Durham and Cleveland Police's Operation Icebolt; and if he will make a statement. [121884]

Mr. Blunkett

Operation Icebolt was an anti-terrorist operation conducted by Durham and Cleveland Police Forces in co-operation with the Metropolitan Police in January 2002, and has been concluded. It is longstanding Government policy not to comment publicly on the details of anti-terrorist operations.
