Speaking in the House of Lords on 3 September 2026

Debate

Cyber Security and Resilience (Network and Information Systems) Bill

Contribution

Amendment 28 in the name of the noble Baroness, Lady Neville-Jones—again, cogently introduced by her—removes “could have had” from the definition of a data centre incident, so that the definition instead covers incidents that have had, are having or are likely to have a significant impact. This closes off the same speculative hypothetical triggering that this Committee has already discussed under Amendment 17, earlier in the clause, and applies the same discipline specifically to data centres.
