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

To ask the Secretary of State for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport, what estimate he has made of the number of people whose online parental controls could be affected by the adoption of DNS over HTTPS.

We are aware that the adoption of DNS over HTTPS could impact online parental controls. We are working with industry with industry to understand both their plans for the implementation of DNS over HTTPS, and for solutions to maintain online parental controls.
