Our latest Director Factsheet, from McCann FitzGerald, looks at the The National Security and Investment Act 2021 (the “Act”) which was passed into law on 29 April, and is expected to enter into force later this year pending secondary legislation.

The Act overhauls the UK's national security screening regime, conferring power on the UK Government to investigate, impose conditions on or block investments which pose an unacceptable risk to national security.
