Remaining stages of the Railways Bill

Parliament will complete the remaining parliamentary stages of the Cyber Security and Resilience (Network and Information Systems) Bill, which updates the UK's framework for protecting critical digital infrastructure from cyber attacks. The bill modernises how the government regulates and supports organisations that run essential services—from energy and water to health and transport—to meet growing cyber threats. This is the final opportunity for MPs to debate and amend the legislation before it moves to the House of Lords.

This bill is nationally significant because cyber attacks on critical infrastructure can disrupt essential services that millions depend on daily. It sets binding security standards for operators of vital networks and gives the government new powers to respond to major incidents. Organisations across energy, water, telecoms, and transport sectors will face new compliance obligations and costs, making this a key test of how Labour balances security demands against business burdens.
