My Department’s ICT Unit provides a secure Departmental email service. I also use a private email account. In the past, for operational reasons, that private account has also been used for communication on certain matters, such as diary issues, speeches and information updates. However, for some time now the policy has been that I use my Departmental secure account only for confidential official business, including on Brexit.
