Speaking in the House of Lords on 1 September 2026
Debate
Cyber Security and Resilience (Network and Information Systems) BillContribution
I finish by returning to the broader point. The reason for this group—the debate around AI in the context of cyber security—is that I am afraid we are still unclear about the Government’s wider approach to cyber security and AI. We need to see the bigger picture in the form of a national action plan or White Paper that explains to us overall how the Government see the evolving world enabled by these extremely powerful technologies. We can go sector by sector and debate the best way to regulate and protect them against cyber attacks, but what matters is the Government’s applied philosophy. Until we see that, we are debating ideas in the dark.
