Question to the Department for Science, Innovation & Technology:

To ask the Secretary of State for Science, Innovation and Technology, with reference to the Cabinet Office's policy paper entitled National security strategy 2025: security for the British people in a dangerous world, updated on 29 August 2025, when her Department will publish the Research Security Strategy.

The Research Security Strategy, led by my Department, will for the first time present a single, coordinated Government view on research security and set out a clear narrative on how a thriving R&D sector, supported by a strong research security culture, is fundamental to secure national security, resilience and economic growth.

Work is progressing and the Strategy will be published when it is complete.
