answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 25/03/2020 answer text <p>The Government conducted a comprehensive, evidence-based review into the telecoms supply chain, which was published in July 2019. The final conclusions of the Government’s Telecoms Supply Chain Review in relation to high risk vendors were announced on 28 January and provided the details of the additional steps it will be necessary to take to mitigate the risk from high risk vendors. This announcement made clear the Government’s intention to, over time, reduce our reliance on high risk vendors as market diversification takes place. We want to get to a position where we do not have to use a high risk vendor in our telecoms networks at all.</p><p> </p><p>The conclusions of the Review were based on security analysis from our world-leading cybersecurity experts, and took into account the full range of issues and risks.</p><p> </p> answering member printed Baroness Barran question first answered 25/03/2020 11:27:18 answering member 4703 label Biography information for Baroness Barran

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 06/02/2020 answer text <p>Interoperability will be one of the three strands of the strategy that the Government is developing to help diversify the supply chain. This will entail the deployment of all the tools at the Government’s disposal. The strategy has three main strands:</p><ul><li><p>Attracting established vendors who are not currently present in the UK;</p></li><li><p>Supporting the emergence of new, disruptive entrants to the supply chain; and</p></li><li><p>Promoting the adoption of open, interoperable standards that will reduce barriers to entry.</p></li></ul><p>In addition, the Government’s 5G Testbeds and Trials Programme provides an opportunity to support architectural models that open-up the radio access network, allowing operators to use different vendors for different components of the radio access network.</p><p> </p> answering member printed Baroness Morgan of Cotes question first answered 06/02/2020 14:56:52 answering member 4027 label Biography information for Baroness Morgan of Cotes

question text	To ask Her Majesty's Government what steps they have taken to ensure that Huawei's limited role in the UK's 5G network does not present a security risk.
tabling member printed	Lord Taylor of Warwick
uin	HL881
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 06/02/2020 answer text <p>UK Telecoms operators have been advised by the National Cyber Security Centre - in its guidance published on 29 January - on the steps they need to take in relation to high risk vendors. The guidance also sets out the steps necessary for Huawei, including the important continuing role for the world class Huawei Cyber Security Evaluation Centre and Oversight Board.</p><p>In addition, new telecoms security requirements proposed in the Government’s Telecoms Supply Chain Review will raise the height of the security bar and require telecoms operators to design and manage their networks to meet new requirements. They will provide clarity to industry on what is expected in terms of network security and, in turn, improve security across vendors.</p> answering member printed Baroness Morgan of Cotes question first answered 06/02/2020 16:00:32 answering member 4027 label Biography information for Baroness Morgan of Cotes
