I propose to take Questions Nos. 251 and 252 together.

In 2013 20 laptop computers and 241 new and renewed mobile phone subscriptions were provided to employees of my Department. No tablet devices were provided to employees. Over the course of 2013 3 encrypted laptop computers and 4 mobile phones were reported as lost or stolen to my Department.
