Question to the Department for Business and Trade:

To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, whether the cyber security sector will be included in the industrial strategy.

The Industrial Strategy will focus on eight growth-driving sectors. Digital and Technologies has been identified as one of those eight sectors, the UK being the third country in the world to have a tech sector valued at over $1trillion. Within those growth sectors, the Government will prioritise sub-sectors that meet our objectives and where there is evidence that policy can address barriers to growth.
