Question to the Ministry of Defence:

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what discussions he has had with Cabinet colleagues on improving homeland security.

This Government continues to review the risk landscape, including threats to homeland security from overseas, which will feature in the Strategic Defence Review. We continue to work together to review and build a resilient Home Defence Programme to keep Britain safe. As part of this process, Defence Ministers are in regular communication with our Ministerial colleagues on matters that relate to homeland security.
