3:10Now PlayingA cabinet minister has told Sky News the national security adviser Jonathan Powell played no role in the collapse of a China spy trial.
Bridget Phillipson, the education secretary, gave the government's most definitive answer yet about whether Mr Powell was part of the reason the case into two men accused of spying for China was dropped weeks before they were set to go on trial.
Asked on Sunday Morning with Trevor Phillips if she could assure him that the national security adviser played no role in the decision, Ms Phillipson said: "Yes, I can give that assurance."
