Intelligence Services

EDM number 113 in 1993-94, proposed by Barbara Roche on 25/11/1993.

That this House welcomes the fact that MI6 and GCHQ will be put on a statutory basis but is not convinced that wheeling out Sir Colin McColl at a press conference to confirm that he uses green ink in honour of MI6's eccentric founder constitutes a long overdue opening up of the security services, nor does it believe that a committee of six honourable Members and peers hand-picked by the Prime Minister to examine MI6, MI5 and GCHQ as announced in the Intelligence Services Bill [Lords] will provide the proper independent accountability of security services that all Britain's close allies have; and urges the Government to ensure that the security services are accountable to a Select Committee and through it to this House and to the people who pay for them.

This motion has been signed by a total of 76 MPs.
