<p>The Government welcomes the independent and robust oversight of the Security and
Intelligence Agencies and wider Intelligence Community that the Intelligence and Security
Committee of Parliament provides.</p><p>The role and remit of the Committee is set
out in the Justice and Security Act 2013 and accompanying Memorandum of Understanding
(MoU), agreed between the Committee and the Prime Minister. The current arrangements
set out in the Act and related MoU are sufficient to enable the Committee to discharge
its statutory function in respect of the oversight of the UK Intelligence Community.
There are therefore no plans to update these arrangements.</p>
