Defending Democracy Taskforce
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what recent progress the Defending Democracy Taskforce has made on protecting democratic institutions.
Answered by Dan Jarvis
The Taskforce is driving forward a whole of government response to the threats to our democratic institutions.
Recent progress includes developing new legislation to address the abhorrent harassment and intimidation experienced by elected representatives, provision of personal cyber security advice and the roll out of new National Protective Security Authority security guidance to help protect those working in our democracy.
