Debate

Cyber Security and Resilience (Network and Information Systems) Bill

Contribution

I will focus my speech on UK data centres and the scope to maintain cyber-defences around them in the Bill. AI has the power to bring enormous benefits to our society and economy, from healthcare to productivity. AI growth will rely on having the right infrastructure to support it. Of course, this means the installation of data centres across our country. These data centres should be located in appropriate places, making use of former industrial sites and brownfield land wherever possible, in locations and settings that are as discreet as possible.
