Cyber Security and Resilience (Network and Information Systems) BillContribution
We cannot allow a “compliance first, justice second” culture to take root. If we are to grant the Executive these sweeping, unprecedented powers, we must match them with equivalent modern and constitutionally sound safeguards. We must ensure that the citizen and the business are protected by a full, merits-based process, as recommended by our own Constitution Committee. I urge the Minister to accept this vital constitutional correction, and I beg to move.
