To ask the Secretary of State for Science, Innovation and Technology, whether she intends to publish an updated Space Industrial Plan.
Kanishka Narayan
Parliamentary Under Secretary of State (Department for Science, Innovation and Technology)
The government does not intend to update the Space Industrial Plan. Instead, a broader plan for space will be published later this year, which will build on the Space Industrial Plan and other relevant publications, including the National Space Strategy and the Strategic Defence Review. The plan will set out objectives and delivery plans for areas previously covered by the Space Industrial Plan, including skills, regulation and investment.
