Radioactivity (Emergency Service Officials)

Mr. Redmond
asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department what are the posts, ranks and responsibilities of the senior civil emergency service officials who are briefed on a classified basis on contingency plans at incidents involving radioactive materials.

Mr. Douglas Hogg
I do not know to which contingency plans the question refers. The dissemination of any classified information is on a need to know basis and is not determined by rank.
