Brltaln's security watch dogs. (STILLS)
They were named in the Commons this afternoon as ~e
members of a permanent security commission - Mr. Justice Winn,
who'll be chairman; Lord Normembrook and Sir Casper John.
Sir Alec Douglas Home said that they'd be called in if
S
there'd been e breach of security and would report direct to the
Prime Minister. The co,v.lssion would be able to act, said Sir
Alec, even when there'd been no conviction, perhaps because an
individual heal fled the country. ~e leader of the Opposition would
be consulted on the commission's findings and their reports would
be puhllshed if security considerations permitted.
The watchdogs' role will be to investigate any failure of
security arrangements or neglect of duty by the people involved.
Sir Alec said he'd declded to appoint the commission
following talks between himself and Mr. Narold Wilson.
