Lord Ravensdale (CB)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 1 September 2026

Debate

Cyber Security and Resilience (Network and Information Systems) Bill

Contribution

My Lords, can I clarify the Minister’s response to my amendment? She stated that the statement of strategic priorities should not refer to specific technologies, implying that it is difficult to change. The reasoning behind my amendment was precisely because the statement of strategic priorities is a more flexible instrument than having these targets in the Bill. I think there is no question of the threats posed by quantum cryptography and the need for better join-up. Can the Minister clarify her comments on the statement of strategic priorities?
