The concrete measures to strengthen Denmark's protection against cyber threats will be acted out in accordance with the rule of law and personal freedoms. The Parties agree that the above initiatives are important steps in strengthening the robustness and defence of Danish society against cyber attacks, but it is also an area of rapid development where further action may be needed. Denmark will not hesitate to do more during the agreement period if necessary. Therefore, a reserve of DKK 500 million will be set aside over the agreement period for further initiatives, including research and education. In total, approximately DKK 1.4 billion will be allocated for cyber defence. A relevant Danish defence in the Arctic The Kingdom of Denmark is centrally located in the Arctic of which it covers a significant part. Developments in the Arctic - including in Greenland and the Faroe Islands - are naturally of vital importance to Denmark. The Danish Armed Forces have a long tradition of operating in the Arctic. The Danish Defence presence and tasks are based on close relationships with the populations and local authorities of both Greenland and the Faroe Islands. It is important to the Ministry of Defence's future presence in the Arctic to continue to strengthen and develop this relationship. These years, major changes are taking place in the Arctic. Climate change brings not only better accessibility, but also an increased attention to the extraction of natural resources as well as intensified commercial and scientific activity. There is also increased military activity in the area. These factors mean that the geopolitical importance of the Arctic will become increasingly significant in the coming years. Although climate change and increased activity in the region necessitate increased presence and monitoring, it is also a priority to maintain the Arctic as a low tension area. In cooperation with Greenland and the Faroe Islands, efforts in the Arctic are strengthened as follows: - The Arctic Agreement of December 2016, which strengthens surveillance, command, control and communication, and operational efforts in the Arctic, are continued. New initiatives can be re-prioritised within the framework of the Agreement. In the Arctic Agreement there are annually allocated DKK 120 million for initiatives, with a sum total after six years of DKK 720 million. In addition, a total of DKK 235 million will be allocated through this Defence Agreement to following additional initiatives. - Earmarked funds for cleaning up abandoned US military installations in Greenland - Investments in equipment to protect against pollution in the waters around Greenland. - Launch of a new education in Greenland with focus on civil preparedness and contingency education, in conjunction with other on-going projects such as the Greenland Guard and with a focus on already acquired civilian competencies. - Initial conscription enrolment assessments to be carried out in Greenland for volunteers who want to sign up for national service. - Subsidised travel schemes for Greenlandic conscripts to travel home. - More apprentice places for secondary school students to be established in connection to Armed Forces units.
