ABOUT NSCS

The National Security Coordination Secretariat (NSCS) is a unit under the Prime Minister’s Office responsible for national security planning and coordination.

NSCS works with agencies and stakeholders to develop, co-ordinate and implement Singapore’s strategies to address national security concerns. NSCS also works with agencies to anticipate and identify emergent security risks, and to build up capabilities and resources to deal with these.

To facilitate national security coordination, NSCS staffs the National Security Coordinating Committee (NSCCom) and the Security Policy Review Committee (SPRC), chaired by the Permanent Secretary (National Security & Intelligence Coordination) and the Coordinating Minister for National Security, respectively.
