When I was the Cabinet Minister leading the UK's Open First strategy a decade ago, the UK took leadership in Open Source software, and has continued to do this through Government Digital Services. The unprecedented adoption of Open Source software across the globe has generated a necessary focus on its curation and governance to ensure well maintained, secure Open Source in our private and public sectors.
