Answered by Ben Wallace
This Government takes the threat of cyber crime extremely seriously, which is why we have committed to spending £1.9 billion to deliver the National Cyber Security Strategy. This includes boosting the capabilities of the National Crime Agency’s National Cyber Crime Unit and investing in the cyber teams within Regional Organised Crime Units to bolster our response.

Question to the Home Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what assessment the Government has made of whether Hezbollah is a unified organisation under a single leadership.
Answered by Ben Wallace
The UK proscription regime distinguishes between the political and military wings of Hizballah. The UK proscribed Hizballah’s External Security Organisation in March 2001 and in 2008 the proscription was extended to Hizballah’s military apparatus.
