Dr. Margaret Stanley:

Elsewhere in my Department, that is, the Department of Defence, there is responsibility for the new critical entities resilience regulations. That is a new Europe-wide approach to improving the security and resilience of different sectors of the economy that have provided vital support for society and economy. As part of the work of looking at critical entities resilience, my Department has co-ordinated stress tests on certain parts of this infrastructure in the energy sector to identify opportunities to improve their security and resilience. I would not want to go into too much detail on that, but that is a good example of what can happen when industry and the Government work together with the overall aim of improving security. That is another measure, co-ordinating this area, that could be taken forward in the maritime space.
