Proceeding contribution from Andrew Miller (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 15 September 2011. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Scientific Advice (Emergencies).
Scientific Advice (Emergencies)
I am fairly confident, following Sir Edmund Burton's report on the missing Royal Navy laptop, that part of the Government's response will be about awareness and the training of personnel. Will the Minister confirm that that will happen throughout the civil service machinery? It is no good saying that it belongs only to permanent secretaries or techies in the back room, because it affects us all. There has to be a serious campaign in the public sector to ensure that people understand how serious these challenges are.
