Question to the Cabinet Office:

To ask Her Majesty's Government what action they intend to take to ensure that other states do not interfere improperly in the UK’s democratic process.

Ahead of the 2017 General Election, a series of protective measures were put in place to mitigate or reduce risks to the UK’s democratic process. The Cabinet Office, with the National Cyber Security Centre, continues to monitor the threat to all UK democratic processes whether at a national, regional or local level.
