answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 07/03/2019 answer text <p>We know that certain states routinely use hybrid warfare, disinformation, ‘bots’ and hacking as foreign policy tools. It’s not surprising that they should try to influence the UK to further their own agendas. There is no evidence of successful interference, but the UK is not complacent to this threat. We are actively monitoring to identify and understand disinformation campaigns, and are taking action to ensure our democracy remains secure.</p> answering member constituency Aylesbury answering member printed Mr David Lidington question first answered 07/03/2019 12:32:00 answering member 15 label Biography information for Sir David Lidington

question text	To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what steps he plans to take to amend the rules on vehicle licensing as a result of the judgment of the Court of Justice of the European Union in Fundo de Garantia Automovel v Juliana and another, Case C-80/17.
tabling member constituency	Sheffield South East

uin	228560
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 11/03/2019 answer text <p>The Department does not intend to make any changes to vehicle licensing rules as a direct result of the Juliana judgment. In relation to this judgment, the Department conducted a review of the rules around the UK’s Statutory Off-Road Notification (SORN) regime. A SORN registration is an official step that withdraws a vehicle from being used for travel on roads and the Department’s position is that the exemption from the compulsory motor insurance requirement in these circumstances is compliant with the Juliana judgement. Consequently, the position of the Department is that no further steps are needed to satisfy the requirements of the Juliana judgment.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Hereford and South Herefordshire answering member printed Jesse Norman question first answered 11/03/2019 14:59:43 answering member 3991 label Biography information for Jesse Norman
