The Accreditation Bodies and Certification Bodies charge a fee for the issuing of certificates and any related services provided.</p><p> </p><p>The original start-up costs included an injection of investment from the Government's National Cyber Security Programme in 2014 and there has been some further investment to uplift the scheme in the last 2 years.

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 11/04/2019 answer text <p>The Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) has responsibility for a number of policy objectives in the National Cyber Security Strategy relating to improving the cyber resilience of organisations across the economy. In this role, DCMS works very closely with the National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC), which was established in October 2016 as the UK’s authority on cyber security matters. The NCSC regularly produces contextualised guidance, products and services, such as Cyber Essentials and 10 Steps to Cyber Security, which allow organisations across key sectors to protect themselves against cyber incidents. The NCSC also works closely with regulators, trade associations and other external partners to proactively share its guidance, products and services to ensure they reach organisations, all of which can be found on the recently relaunched NCSC website. Additionally, Government departments, including DCMS and the NCSC, are working together to deliver a national campaign for cyber security to help individuals and organisations take action to protect themselves online.</p><p><strong> </strong></p> answering member constituency Stourbridge answering member printed Margot James question first answered 11/04/2019 14:13:45 answering member 4115 label Biography information for Margot James
