Government Business: Messaging Services

Lord Cormack Excerpts

Thursday 31st March 2022 Lords Chamber

[Baroness Scott of Bybrook (Con)]

I cannot give the noble Baroness any further information apart from the fact that there are appropriate arrangements and guidance in place for the management and security of all electronic communications to conduct government business. In line with practices across successive Administrations, the Government do not otherwise comment on internal security arrangements, as I have already said.

[Lord Cormack (Con)]

My Lords, should it not be a breach of the Ministerial Code to tweet or to Twitter?

[Baroness Scott of Bybrook (Con)]

No, I do not think so, my Lords.
