Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:
What recent assessment he has made of the level of risk of Russian interference in UK democratic processes; and if the Government will publish the Intelligence and Security Committee's Russia report.
It is, and always will be, an absolute priority to protect our democratic and electoral processes. The Government took steps during the election to protect the safety and security of our democratic processes. The Government worked with a large number of organisations to do this, and would like to thank them for their continued support and work in this area.
As you would expect, the Government examines all aspects of the electoral process, and that work is ongoing. With regards to the Intelligence and Security Committee’s report on Russia, the Prime Minister has cleared the report for publication, which is now a matter for the new Committee.
