Asked for a date for the National Security Bill and was it likely to be in this session of Parliament or after Christmas, the PMS said that people would have to wait and see but as much notice as possible would be given on timings. Asked when the picture of the former Prime Minister was likely to be put up on the staircase at No10, the PMS said that she did not have an answer to the question, as she was not sure how long such things traditionally took. Asked for details on the paper being published by Peter Hain on Thursday on welfare reform, the PMS replied that it was an update of the situation and further implementation. Asked for an update on Peter Hain’s welfare, the PMS said he was fine. Asked if the Prime Minister had had any visits from the police, the PMS said that he hadn’t. The Government would let people know if the Prime Minister had been interviewed but also, we needed to respect what the Prime Minister had set out in his letter to the police, about allowing the investigation to continue without a constant commentary. Put that a report published today on Farepak had revealed that people who had lost £40m this time last year would not get compensation before Christmas this year and could the PMS confirm that, the PMS replied that she was not in a position to confirm the reports, but the Government had spoken previously on the issue and she referred people back to that position.
