Foreign Investment in UK: National Security
The question
To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, what steps has his Department taken to improve the speed of reviews conducted under the powers of the National Security and Investment Act since 5 July 2024.
Answered by Ms Abena Oppong-Asare
The Government always seeks to conclude reviews under the National Security and Investment (NSI) Act as swiftly as possible. Reviews under the NSI Act are subject to statutory timelines. The Act is also kept under regular review to ensure it is operating as efficiently as possible.
