Question

To ask His Majesty's Government when they will bring forward legislation to prevent the resale of tickets to cultural and sporting events at a price above their face value.

We are fully committed to implementing the measures we announced last year, which will put fans back at the heart of live events and eliminate industrial-scale ticket touting. We are working at pace to prepare the legislation and will publish the draft bill in this session of parliament for pre-legislative scrutiny by the Culture, Media and Sport Select Committee to ensure that the legislation is effective, enforceable and future-proof.
