Lord Mandelson Humble Address: Government Response Update

Contribution

I can confirm that by the end of today, the Cabinet Office will have passed to the ISC all the material it has processed as part of the humble Address and judged to be prejudicial to national security or international relations. This has amounted to over 300 individual documents. It includes a number that are relevant to the processes of Peter Mandelson’s security vetting, too. As I mentioned earlier, I am very grateful to the ISC for the important role it continues to play in the humble Address process, and for the speed with which it is processing the documents.
