Secrets of state are probably the best
kept of all secrets. When cabinet min
listers in England first are admitted to
the privy council, they have to take a
solemn oath not to make known the
conversation or proceedings of cabinet
councils or any communications they
may have with the queen or with an
other minister. They cannot give a
hint of such things even to the highest
members of the government who are
not cabinet ministers. No clerk or sec
rotary is allowed to be present at cabi-
net councils. no written record is kept,
and it is the custom not to take any
notes; hence no one but the crown and
the ministers ever knows what has re-
ally been said and decided at cabinet
meetings. The oath of secrecy lasts to
the end of life. An ex-cabinet minister
Is as much bound by it as an actual
cabinet minister.
Any conversation q minister or peer
may have with the crown on state mat
tiers must also be kept secret. So must
letters to and from the sovereign. And
even communications that have passed
between sovereigns and ministers Of
former reigns must not be divulged.
But in cases of extreme urgency the
crown could and would allow q breach
| of the oath Of secrecy.
