To ask Her Majesty's Government who were the members of the cross-Government governance board referenced in their UK Biological Security Strategy, published in July 2018, in (1) 2018, (2) 2019, and (3) 2020.

The main focus over the last twelve months has been to develop the governance structures and cross-government biological security community.
