(asked on 20th September 2022) - View Source
Question to the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport:
To ask the Secretary of State for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport, what her policy is on the proposed privatisation of Channel 4.
This question was answered on 27th September 2022
Channel 4 is a great UK success story and, in a rapidly changing media landscape, the government wants Channel 4 to have the necessary tools to thrive in the long-term while maintaining its distinctiveness. It is right that the government looks again in detail at the business case for a sale of Channel 4, and I will announce next steps in due course.
