Proceeding contribution from Lord Clement-Jones (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 3 September 2026. It occurred during Committee proceeding and Debate on bill on Cyber Security and Resilience (Network and Information Systems) Bill.
Cyber Security and Resilience (Network and Information Systems) Bill
May I interrupt the Minister before she moves on to the next set of amendments? I do not intend to ambush her as regards her amendments this time around, but I seek an assurance, given that there seems to be quite a philosophical difference between her amendments today and those put forward by the noble Baroness, Lady Neville-Jones. There is considerable industry concern about the disproportionality involved. I seek an assurance from the Minister that, between Committee and Report, she will actively consult on the impact of this part of the Bill—Clause 15—and not just when it is in black-letter form. There is quite a lot of concern from many industry voices. It is incumbent on the Government to listen to those voices on the impact of this reporting structure and these duties before they go ahead in a way that many of us believe will not be helpful for the running of these businesses.
