Defence: Infrastructure
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what security measures are in place to vet contractors and suppliers involved in sensitive defence infrastructure projects.
Answered by Luke Pollard
Defence has a range of mandatory physical, personnel and cyber security controls that are applied to contractor personnel, facilities and systems. These are all scalable to the sensitivity of projects being worked on and the classification of information being processed. If there is a particular risk the hon. Member is concerned about, I would be grateful if he could write to me about it.
