MPs agreed unanimously on May 9 to investigate China’s cyberattacks against parliamentarians through a House of Commons committee.
The motion for the investigation was initiated by Conservative MP Garnett Genuis, who raised a question of privilege on April 29. He revealed that day that he and 17 other parliamentarians were targeted in 2021 by a Beijing-backed hacker group known as Advanced Persistent Threat 31 (APT31).
