Question

Asked by Stuart Anderson to Cabinet Office on 28 October 2026 — tabled under the Andy Burnham government

To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, what systems are in place to identify and apply lessons learned from international natural disasters and cyber attacks to UK frameworks.

Answer

Answered by Dan Jarvis (Labour)

I refer the hon. Member to the answer I gave on 10 November 2026 to PQ 38438 . The same applies for learning lessons from international natural disasters and cyber attacks.

Verdict: RED (22/100)

The reply addresses the question only partially and in hedged terms. It refers the Member to an earlier answer (PQ 38438) and says the same approach applies to lessons from international natural disasters and cyber attacks, but it does not itself describe the arrangement being asked about. A reader would need to consult the referenced answer or submit a follow-up to get the specifics.

How we got there

Question itemCoverageSpecificityRationale
What systems are in place to identify and apply lessons learned from international natural disasters and cyber attacks to UK frameworks? Partially Addressed Hedged The reply does not describe any system itself. It refers the Member to an earlier answer (PQ 38438) and says the same applies to lessons from international natural disasters and cyber attacks, which points to a relevant arrangement without stating what it is, so the substantive answer is left to another document.
