The files, which relate to a meeting of financial crime experts to be held this week, were found on a train bound for London's Waterloo station on Wednesday.

A Treasury spokesman said the government was "extremely concerned" about what had happened.

The documents apparently include briefing notes for a meeting of the international Financial Action Task Force to be held in 11 Downing Street next week.

A Treasury spokesman said: "We are extremely concerned about what has happened and we will be taking steps to ensure that it doesn't happen in the future."

The papers were found on the same day that another batch of secret papers relating to intelligence assessments of Iraq and al-Qaeda were handed to the BBC after being left by a senior official on a train.
