answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 06/08/2015 answer text <p>As set out in the Answer to PQ 5979, the Inquiry will have access to all information that it considers relevant, including any records held by the intelligence and security services. The Home Secretary has been clear from the outset that all departments, including the intelligence and security agencies, must comply fully with the Inquiry, ensuring that if any relevant files are held that they are available for the Inquiry to review. That is the basis on which the agencies have been proceeding, and they remain committed to co-operating in full. Furthermore, on 23rd June 2015 the Inquiry served HMG a notice requiring it to retain material of potential relevance to the Inquiry's terms of reference. The Security and Intelligence Agencies will comply with this notice.</p> answering member constituency Staffordshire Moorlands answering member printed Karen Bradley question first answered 06/08/2015 14:11:56 answering member 4110 label Biography information for Dame Karen Bradley
