Written Answers
Ministry of Defence: Microsoft Asked by: Lord Harris of Haringey (Labour - Life peer) Tuesday 22nd September 2026 Question to the Ministry of Defence: To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the Ministry of Defence's reliance on Microsoft products and cloud services; and what steps they are taking to ensure resilience and competition in the procurement of digital infrastructure. Answered by Lord Coaker - Minister of State (Ministry of Defence) Microsoft products and services provide core productivity, collaboration, cyber security and infrastructure capabilities across Defence and are critical to the operation of enterprise and operational ICT services. The Ministry of Defence's (MOD) use of Microsoft reflects long-standing operational, security and interoperability requirements. Microsoft technologies are widely used across Government and by NATO allies, supporting collaboration and interoperability. The MOD keeps its reliance on strategic technology suppliers under regular review and is pursuing a multi-cloud and hybrid-cloud strategy to strengthen resilience.
Health Services: Digital Technology Asked by: Lord Harris of Haringey (Labour - Life peer) Tuesday 22nd September 2026 Question to the Department of Health and Social Care: To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the reliance of the NHS on Microsoft products and cloud services; and what steps they are taking to ensure resilience and competition in the procurement of digital infrastructure. Answered by Baroness Merron - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department of Health and Social Care) No such assessment has taken place. The Government Commercial Agency acts for the Government to ensure there is resilience and competition in the choice of suppliers available to public sector bodies such as the National Health Service. This is through management of the Crown Commercial Service’s data and digital framework agreements which maintain a range of suppliers, organised by different skills and functions, from which organisations like the NHS use to ‘call-off’ work for specific contracts. In line with the Procurement Act 2023, all Government framework agreements are awarded in line with the principles of openness, fairness, and transparency, and for data and digital contracts, commercial experts use contract terms, data protection requirements, data protection impact assessments, cyber checks, and the Digital, Data and Technology Playbook to assess suppliers. The right test is whether a supplier can meet the NHS’s requirements on safety, data protection, security, service quality, and value for money.
