Question to the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport, what steps he has taken to ensure that the UK retains its status as a European broadcasting hub after the UK leaves the EU.

The UK is an important hub for international broadcasting businesses due to its favourable regulatory and economic environment, access to world class skills and talent, and well as cultural factors, such as language.

We are committed to working with the sector to understand their needs and concerns relating to the UK exiting the EU. We will work hard to secure the best deal for the UK on exit, and ensure that our relationship with the EU works for the industry.
