I thank the Minister of State. Based on what we heard yesterday and at previous committee meetings, we will all be very interested in that review, and especially in the scale of investment needed. We can also see what comes out with regard to the suggestion that the sector and the National Cyber Security Centre is possibly under-resourced to a significant degree.

More broadly, I want to know about the governance structure, and the regulatory and legislative basis of the National Cyber Security Centre's relationship with its up to 150 partners. Is the Minister of State satisfied that this structure is robust enough? Does the Minister of State intend to bring forward legislation or is there legislation coming from an EU level, that needs to be implemented more rigorously here?

How does the Minister of State envisage the governance and regulatory framework changing in the time ahead?
