I refer noble Lords to The UK Government Public Policy Interest in Standardisation 2025, which is very important in this sense. Published only a few weeks ago, it underlines how key policy ambitions can be supported by UK global leadership in developing and promoting international standards. The noble Lord mentioned the British Standards Institution, the UK’s national standards body. It plays a crucial role in shaping global best practice, and I pay tribute to it. We believe that it supports the UK’s flexible and pro-competitive regulatory model.
