National Security: Journalism
Asked by: Luke Taylor (Liberal Democrat - Sutton and Cheam) Tuesday 21st April 2026 Question to the Home Office: To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what steps she is taking to improve protections for journalists and media organisations in the UK against threats carried out by foreign states. Answered by Dan Jarvis - Minister of State (Cabinet Office) The Home Office does not comment on operational matters. I refer the Honourable Member to the answer given on 13 April to Question 125072. The Government's top priority is our national security, and we will use all the tools at our disposal to protect the UK, and its people, from state threats. Any attempt by a foreign state to intimidate, harass or harm individuals in the UK will not be tolerated, and will be thoroughly investigated. The Home Office works closely with other government departments as well as relevant agencies and law enforcement to protect people identified as being at risk. The National Security Act 2023 provides the security services and law enforcement agencies with the tools they need to deter, detect, and disrupt modern-day state threats. The National Protective Security Authority and Counter Terrorism Policing will continue to provide protective security advice and support to individuals and organisations threatened by states. It is vital that journalists are able to continue their jobs without the fear of attack or threat. A free and robust media is essential - for national security, for human rights, and for democratic governance. That is why we remain an important member of the Media Freedom Coalition (MFC), which we co-founded in 2019. Anyone who thinks they might be a victim should report incidents or suspicious activity to the Police via 101, a local police station, or 999 in emergencies. |

Meningitis: Vaccination
Asked by: Luke Taylor (Liberal Democrat - Sutton and Cheam) Friday 24th April 2026 Question to the Department of Health and Social Care: To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, if he will ring-fence funding to enable the mass procurement and delivery of NHS meningitis B vaccines to groups identified by clinical experts as being at increased risk. Answered by Sharon Hodgson - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department of Health and Social Care) Decisions on eligibility for routine vaccination programmes are taken by the department on the basis of independent scientific advice from the Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation (JCVI). In 2015, following review of the epidemiology, disease burden, vaccine safety and efficacy, and cost-effectiveness analysis, the JCVI recommended that young infants should be routinely vaccinated against meningococcal B (MenB) with the aim of providing optimal protection as early as possible, as this age group had the highest disease incidence. In response to the meningitis outbreak in Kent, my Rt. Hon. Friend, the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, has asked the JCVI to review eligibility for MenB vaccination in older children and young adults. As ever, the Government will carefully consider JCVI advice. |

British Overseas Territories: Companies
Asked by: Luke Taylor (Liberal Democrat - Sutton and Cheam) Tuesday 28th April 2026 Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office: To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, what steps she is taking to ensure that the Overseas Territories introduce Public Registers of Beneficial Ownership. Answered by Stephen Doughty - Minister of State (Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office) I refer the Hon Member to the answer I gave on this issue during the most recent session of departmental oral questions on 21 April, and to my Written Ministerial Statement (HCWS1237) following the Joint Ministerial Council on 13 January. |
