answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 01/11/2018 answer text <p>The Electronic Communications Code (ECC) was recently reformed as part of the Digital Economy Act 2017. These reforms were intended to reduce the cost of providing communications infrastructure and make it easier for operators to deploy such infrastructure. The new Code came into force on 28 December 2017.</p><p> </p><p>The Regulatory Impact Assessment published by Government estimated that the ECC reforms could lead to a reduction in average market rents (as compared to rates agreed before reforms to the ECC). However, the eventual impact is difficult to predict during this period of transition in which operators and site providers adapt to the new legislation.</p><p> </p><p>During this period, where the market is adjusting and settling, good working relationships between site providers and code operators are critical, and we encourage all parties to continue their efforts to reach mutually acceptable agreements. A joint statement released in August reaffirmed the commitment made by DCMS, industry, CLA and RICS to work collaboratively to implement the ECC.</p><p><strong> </strong></p><p>My Department will continue to work with stakeholders, including representatives from industry, landowners, representative bodies and Ofcom, to inform the implementation of the new Code. We will monitor developments carefully and, as outlined in the Future Telecoms Infrastructure Review, (<a href="https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/732496/Future_Telecoms_Infrastructure_Review.pdf" target="_blank">https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/732496/Future_Telecoms_Infrastructure_Review.pdf</a>) will consider a formal review of the impact of the ECC reforms.</p><p><strong> </strong></p> answering member constituency Stourbridge answering member printed Margot James question first answered 01/11/2018 18:05:33 answering member 4115 label Biography information for Margot James

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 29/10/2018 answer text <p>As stated in the National Cyber Security Strategy, the target is for the majority of commodity products and services available in the UK in 2021 to be more secure because they have their default security settings enabled by default or have security integrated into their design. We want to make the UK one of the safest places in the world to do business and be online. The Code of Practice is a step in that direction, by clarifying for manufacturers what good practice looks like. The sector is evolving and whilst the market continues to develop, DCMS will be working closely with manufacturers, including those that are looking to create new internet-connected consumer products to ensure that security is built into smart devices by design. Currently, we are seeking to achieve buy-in from manufacturers that cover a significant proportion of the UK.</p><p> </p><p>We also recognise the need for regulation that is based on the Code of Practice, and have already commenced work in this space. More information, including the scope of products likely to be covered, will be available in 2019.</p><p><strong> </strong></p> answering member constituency Stourbridge answering member printed Margot James question first answered 29/10/2018 17:11:50 answering member 4115 label Biography information for Margot James
