The UK’s Joint Committee on the National Security Strategy is examining the government’s approach to telecoms technology as a national security matter, in particular the country’s FiveG network and Huawei’s place in it. It wants to know what challenges UK telecoms companies are facing, the risks of buying overseas equipment and services, the support the industry gets from government, the role of regulations and the impact of key security and industry strategies. The committee will also compare the UK’s approach to those adopted by France, Germany and the 5 Eyes allies.
