China: Breach of UK Parliamentarians’ Data

Contribution

I can give my hon. Friend the commitments that he seeks, and I am sure that that is what Mr Speaker and the public would expect. They would expect us to behave in a way that seeks to bring together Members on both sides of the House, so that we can stand against the threats that we face and work to achieve common solutions to address them. My hon. Friend makes an important point about FIRS, which is an important operational tool that is still in its infancy. This Government introduced it on 1 July 2025. We are still working out how we can make sure that it delivers the maximum operational effect, and still working to ensure that it is an effective capability. It is doing good work on behalf of the nation, and we should all get behind it.
