The government is set to publish its Integrated Review of Security, Defence, Development and Foreign Policy. Its conclusions will shape the UK’s approach to national security and determine how the government sees the UK’s place in the world but the review's impact goes beyond foreign policy.
This Institute for Government event discussed how the review will shape the government’s domestic agenda, what it means for the UK’s economic prosperity and stability, and the UK’s readiness to meet security threats to the international order such as climate change, cyber attacks, and pandemics.
On the panel were:
Rt Hon Tobias Ellwood MP, Chair of the House of Commons Defence Select Committee
Shashank Joshi, Defence Editor at The Economist
Ciaran Martin, former Chief Executive of the National Cyber Security Centre; now Professor of Practice in the Management of Public Organisations at Blavatnik School of Government, Oxford University
Cate Pye, Partner, Cyber Security and Public Sector at PA Consulting
The event was chaired by Alex Thomas, Programme Director at the Institute for Government.
