Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what resources have been provided to the Joint Security and Resilience Centre (JSaRC) to support public-private execution of the National Security Strategy 2025.

The Joint Security and Resilience Centre (JSaRC) acts as a convening and engagement mechanism for the security industry that supports delivery of the National Security Strategy 2025.

JSaRC is staffed by 15 full-time equivalent civil servants, supported part-time by three secondees from industry. Its budget for 2026 to 2027 is £1,748,476.

These resources enable JSaRC to provide the secretariat for the Security and Resilience Growth Partnership board and to run the annual Security & Policing Exhibition.
