Motion Text

That this House expresses its deep concern that a number of agency staff employed by TNT and security-cleared by the Ministry of Defence have been found in possession of drugs whilst working in the recently privatised Ministry of Defence Records Office in Hayes, which handles highly confidential and secret military records; and notes that this confirms the fears expressed by numerous honourable Members about the consequences of this ill-judged and unnecessary privatisation.
