Defence: Space Technology
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what mechanisms are in place to monitor the progress of joint UK-EU initiatives on space security agreed in the UK-EU Summit Common Understanding.
Answered by Luke Pollard
The UK-EU Security and Defence Partnership provides a framework for cooperation on key issues, including space security. As implementation plans develop, progress will be monitored through structured dialogue and consultation mechanisms. The UK and EU will cooperate on space-related security issues, including through multilateral fora such as the United Nations and within the framework of EU-NATO cooperation. The Partnership will help promote norms, rules, and principles of responsible behaviour in outer space.
