Sorry, pushed 'Send' too quickly. Forgot to add that if you look in
System|Help and Support| # GNOME Desktop System Administration Guide
# Disabling GNOME Desktop Features
you will find:

10.2.1. To Disable Lock Screen and Log Out

To disable the lock screen and log out functions, set the
/apps/panel/global/disable_lock_screen key and the
/apps/panel/global/disable_log_out key to true.

When you disable
  the lock screen and log out functions, the following items are removed
from
  the panels:

    *Lock Screen and Log
        Out user menu items from the Main Menu.

    *Lock and Log Out
        menu items from the Add to Panel ▸ Actions menu. To open this
menu, right-click on
        a vacant space on a panel, then choose Add to Panel ▸ Actions.

    *Lock Screen and Log
        Out user menu items from the Actions menu in the Menu Bar applet.

Also, any Lock Screen buttons and Log Out buttons on panels are disabled.
