Publisher Description: The Committee was established with a broad role: to consider the National Security Strategy. In practice it has considered not only the National Security Strategy (NSS) document published by the Government in 2010 (Cm. 7953, ISBN 9780101795326) but also the wider strategy that underlies government decision-making on matters affecting national security. This report gives an account of activities over the past year, highlighting in particular the evidence session with the Prime Minister in January 2014; draws attention to areas of continuing concern; and outlines objectives for the remainder of the Parliament. Sections include: lessons from recent events; the US pivot to Asia; the UK's relationship with the EU; contingency planning; energy security, resilience and critical national infrastructure; the role of the National Security Strategy; a realistic NSS-no shrinkage in influence?; planning for the next NSS. |
