Holyrood Security II: 'The Investigation'

A Holyrood spokesman has responded to the report in the Scotsman (entry below) as follows:

“The Scottish Parliament treats security-related issues very seriously. The parliament’s security team immediately launched an investigation on being informed of these reports.”

A security team? There is a security team? As sure as day follows night, bureaucratic pomposity follows bureaucratic incompetence. Why not simply admit there was no security, team or no team, and promise to introduce it right now?
