Question to the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport:
To ask the Secretary of State for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport, what estimate his Department has made of the number of UK-based jobs which are linked to international broadcasters which are licensed by Ofcom and mainly broadcast outside the UK.
DCMS economic estimates show that 194,000 people were employed in the wider audiovisual sector in 2016. However, we do not possess granular data on international broadcasting specifically.
