The following extract is from Second Reading of the Cyber Security and Resilience (Network and Information Systems) Bill on 6 January 2026.

[Dave Robertson (Lichfield) (Lab)]

My right hon. Friend is right to mention the impact on supply chains. In the west midlands, we recently had the cyber-attack on Jaguar Land Rover. That had a significant impact not just on that company, but on the supply chain, which has its roots right through the west midlands. That essential part of our economy was brought to a grinding halt by a cyber-attack. Will he confirm that this Bill will help prevent such instances from happening in the future?

[Ian Murray]

… I should say to my hon. Friend, and I will come to it later, that Jaguar Land Rover and other private organisations are not in the scope of this Bill.
