National Security and Investment Act 2021
Guidance and information about the National Security and Investment Act.
The government has now published its response to the consultation on the NSI Act Notifiable Acquisition Regulations (NARs). This consultation response summarises the feedback received and sets out the changes that the government will take forward for each schedule of the NARs.
The National Security and Investment Act (NSI) came into force on 4 January 2022.
The NSI Act gives the government powers to scrutinise and intervene in business transactions, such as takeovers, to protect national security, while providing businesses and investors with the certainty and transparency they need to do business in the UK.
