Question to the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport:
To ask the Secretary of State for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport, whether the Government plans to assess the merits of Facebook’s business practices towards other developers as part of the Government review of the UK’s competition powers in April 2019.
This question was answered on 5th March 2019
Competition investigations are a matter for the Competition and Markets Authority. This is carried out independently of Government. The Government’s statutory review of competition law will assess the extent to which competition powers have been effective in fulfilling their aims.
