00:00What you're telling me is there could potentially be other people working for the government
00:04that haven't had UK security vetting clearance.
00:08Is that something now you are going to want to look at and investigate?
00:13100% yes. But let me just take two points.
00:15There may well be situations where particular mitigations have been put in place.
00:20But secondly, we have now, and the Chief Secretary of the Prime Minister last week,
00:24has suspended the right of Foreign Office officials to be able to take a different view.
00:29I know that, but that's going forward.
00:30Up till now, since you've been in government, there could be other people.
00:33That's my question.
00:34Someone has emerged, and we've seen that in the last week.
00:37But you're absolutely right, Victoria, to say we are now working to establish the facts around this more broadly.
00:44That's why we are looking at it.
00:45So you're going to find out if there are other people?
00:47Absolutely.
00:48Right.
