Home Office written question – answered on 22 May 2023.
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what discussions she has had with Cabinet colleagues on countering foreign disinformation in the UK.

The Department for Science, Innovation and Technology holds overall responsibility for countering disinformation and is the convening department that coordinates cross-government capabilities.
The Home Office works closely with DSIT and others in the coordinated effort to protect the UK.
