The Prime Minister
I do not accept that that is a reason for withholding from me the information about security clearance.
Sir John Whittingdale (Maldon) (Con)
The result of the Prime Minister’s terrible failure of judgment is that for over a year this country’s interests were represented in the United States by someone that our own security services deemed to be a security risk. Will he assure us that an investigation will take place into all aspects where our national security may have been damaged, and that the results of that will be made available to the Intelligence and Security Committee and, where possible, to Parliament?
