Question to the Department for Exiting the European Union :

To ask the Secretary of State for Exiting the European Union, what security measures his Department has in place relating to the receipt by his Department of incoming post and parcels; and what discussions he has had with the British Forces Postal Office on providing such services.

This information cannot be disclosed as it may jeopardise the Department’s Protective Security stance.

However, as Department Exiting the European Union is a tenant in other government department’s buildings, it abides by the rules and regulations that they stipulate for the delivery and management of mail and parcels.

All secure mail is handled as part of the Government Secure Mail Service, which may include the use of the British Forces Postal Office, but the Department has not had any direct communications with the BFPO about providing these services.
