The motion

That this House notes the loss of secret papers by a member of the security and intelligence services on a southbound train from Waterloo on 10th June 2008; considers this raises serious questions about the stewardship and management of the Joint Intelligence Committee; believes this incident further underlines the need for parliamentary oversight of the security and intelligence services which currently does not exist; and calls on the Government to initiate an inquiry into the circumstances of this serious breach of security.
