BURKE TREND, BARON TREND
(Redirected from Lord Trend)
'Burke St John Trend, Baron Trend', GCB, CVO, PC (1914–21 July 1987) was a British civil servant and later Rector of Lincoln College, Oxford.
Trend became Cabinet Secretary under both Harold Wilson and Ted Heath between 1963 to 1973. He was made a life peer as 'Baron Trend of Greenwich' in Greater London in 1974.
His son, Michael Trend, was a Conservative Member of Parliament until 2005.
He led an investigation in the 1970s into allegations of penetration of the British Secret Services from before World War II until the 1960s. His conclusion was that there was insufficient evidence to support the allegations. Peter Wright in his memoirs, ''Spycatcher'' (ISBN 0-670-82055-5), discusses Trend and his report.
