Question to the Attorney General:

To ask the Attorney General, how many people holding security passes for other Government Departments are granted access to the Law Officers' Departments' premises with that pass, by Department.

Civil servants have to ability to work flexibly across government sites where there is a business need to do so. The issuing of all passes is controlled by the local security teams who follow strict procedures and protocols. Information on the number of people holding security passes for other government departments who are granted access to the different AGO premises is not centrally recorded.

At present the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) do not accept other Government Department passes to access the CPS Headquarters office.
