On 9 July 2024, the successful maiden flight of the new heavy-lift rocket Ariane 6 reinstated the EU's autonomous access to space. This came after several months of reliance on private United States launchers as a result of the temporary unavailability of an EU rocket. In recent years, the space sector has witnessed the conjunction of three trends. First, the space economy has grown globally, also because of competitive private actors. Second, as a consequence, space is now increasingly congested, with ever more space objects floating in orbit. Third, space has become a contested domain. With 80 countries having at least one satellite registered, space operations can now be instrumentalised: for instance, in 2021, Russia conducted an illegal anti satellite strike. In her political guidelines for 2024-2029, the President of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, refers to space as an enabler of EU competitiveness, to be supported through investment. The guidelines mention space as a key domain for EU open strategic autonomy, to be enhanced through further cooperation by an EU–NATO partnership. Furthermore, Mario Draghi's September 2024 report on the future of European competitiveness stresses that, despite owning world-class space infrastructure and services, the EU is under-investing in space compared with its global competitors, and is lacking a unified legal framework on space. Ursula von der Leyen's mission letter to Andrius Kubilius, nominated on 17 September 2024 as Commissioner-designate for Defence and Space, names a set of initiatives to unleash a space contribution to EU competitiveness. It includes, in particular, the task of preparing a proposal for an EU space law to ensure a common EU playing field in space while ensuring security, safety, and sustainability. The letter also sets the task of fostering a strong and innovative space sector with a view to achieving several objectives, including maintaining the EU's autonomous access to space, curating EU spatial infrastructure, and enhancing the use of space data and services.

By the 2030s, quantum computers might compromise traditional cryptography, putting digital infrastructure at high risk in the European Union (EU) and around the world. Specifically, it is expected that quantum computers' unique capabilities will allow them to solve complex mathematical problems, such as breaking the traditional cryptographic systems used universally. The confidentiality, integrity and authenticity of sensitive data – including health, financial, security and defence information – will be exposed to threats from any actor possessing a sufficiently powerful quantum computer. There is a pressing need for the EU to start preparing its digital assets to face this risk. Post-quantum cryptography (which uses classical computer properties) and quantum cryptography (which uses quantum mechanical properties) are the two types of critical technology able to protect digital infrastructure from quantum computer attacks. Robust post-quantum cryptography algorithms have been identified, but swift and efficient implementation is crucial before malicious actors exploit the power of quantum computers. Experts stress the need for quantum preparedness to be put in place now, with some of them even warning of a 'quantum cybersecurity Armageddon'. Several countries are adopting strategies to address post-quantum cryptography. The EU is working with Member States and the United States to speed up the transition to post-quantum cryptography, and is also exploring long-term quantum cryptography initiatives.

Deputy Attorney-General Ang Cheng Hock and Workers' Party chief Pritam Singh had a tense exchange in court as the prosecution began its cross-examination of the defendant on Wednesday (Nov 6).  Singh is contesting two charges of wilfully giving false answers to the Committee of Privileges (COP), which was convened in November 2021 to look into a lie that former WP MP Raeesah Khan had told in Parliament three months prior. On Wednesday, DAG Ang questioned Singh on some of the alleged inconsistences between his court testimony and his evident to the COP. One of these issues pertains to Singh's second charge, where he allegedly gave false answers to the COP about telling Khan on Oct 3, 2021 to clarify her story about the rape survivor if the issue was brought up in Parliament the next day.  His first charge relates to a meeting between Khan and the WP leaders on Aug 8, 2021. Singh, 48, allegedly lied when he said he wanted Khan to clarify her untruth in parliament at this meeting.  During the COP, Singh had said Khan would have to clarify the matter, whether or not it was brought up by the government.

SINGAPORE — The ultimate decision to amend the Insurance Act — which would prevent the current form of the Allianz-Income deal from going through — was made by Prime Minister Lawrence Wong himself, together with the Cabinet. Law and Home Affairs Minister K. Shanmugam clarified this in a Facebook post on Wednesday (Nov 6) after former NTUC Income chief executive Tan Suee Chieh in his own Facebook post said he had passed on his feedback on the proposed deal through Shanmugam. The Government announced in Parliament in October that the deal between German insurer Allianz and Income Insurance in its current form had been called off over concerns about the deal structure and the ability of the local insurer to continue its social mission. It then rushed through an amendment to the Insurance Act to allow the approval of the deal to be withheld. This paved the way for the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) to consider the views of the Ministry of Culture, Community and Youth (MCCY) in future applications related to insurers that are cooperatives or are linked to them.
