Iran

Asked what sort of measures against Iran Britain would be pushing for at the UN Security Council, the Prime Minister's Official Spokesman (PMOS) said that first and foremost we should reflect on what had actually taken place. We had been arguing for a referral to the UN for some time now. It was significant that others were joining us now in supporting that.

Sex Offenders/Education

Put to him that Norfolk police had said today that it was not possible for anyone on the sex offender's register to have unintentionally viewed child pornography, and asked to reconcile that claim with the reasons given by ministers for allowing someone on the register to gain employment at a school, the PMOS said that he would not get into the details of an individual case because he was not the one who had to make the assessment. What was right and proper was to take a step back and recognise that there had been borderline cases for decades.
