In brief Qinetiq, the former Ministry of Defence research lab, has been given chairmanship of a UK group designed to develop government security policy. The committee, which comprises government officials, academics, and other experts, will help inform UK government policy on issues such as the introduction of biometric-based identity cards and the establishment of ecommerce projects, the FT reports.

Because a commercial entity is always going to think about your interests first. Right?

BTW: QinetiQ is supposedly pronounced 'kinetic' ... Ha, Ha, Very Funny. I suppose they hoped it would look cool, and sound geeky, or something. They do have a slick website.
