While 1 laptop and 2 memory sticks have been either lost or stolen in recent years, I understand that no personal information about members of the public was contained on these devices.

I refer the Deputy to my reply to parliamentary question 789 of the 30th January 2008. I can confirm that I have not been informed by any of the agencies that come within the ambit of my Department that they have lost or had stolen from them any disks, laptops or memory storage devices containing personal information regarding members of the public.
