We must be able to switch off those systems if we need to, but currently we cannot. That is clearly unacceptable and must change. That is why I am speaking in support of new clause 12, in the name of my hon. Friend the Member for Leeds Central and Headingley (Alex Sobel). The new clause would provide the Secretary of State with a kill switch on data centres in case of a “catastrophic risk” posed by a UK data centre—the national risk register’s most serious level of risk.
