answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 16/01/2019 answer text <p>We are aware that the French authorities are planning for the deployment of new border control posts which will be able to process products of animal origin at the ports of entry for the Channel. In addition, Gérald Darmanin, Minister of Public Action and Accounts, has announced the creation of a customs office in Calais which will help French authorities to improve their capacity to ensure fluidity and avoid unnecessary delays. However, as I stated in evidence to the Committee on Exiting the European Union, we will continue to monitor the situation in Calais and until any such border inspection post is operational, we will continue to develop our border plans to cover the full spectrum of scenarios.</p> answering member constituency Daventry answering member printed Chris Heaton-Harris question first answered 16/01/2019 14:27:35 answering member 3977 label Biography information for Chris Heaton-Harris

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 06/09/2018 answer text <p>The audiovisual sector is both economically and culturally important to the UK and the EU. In our future partnership with the EU, we are seeking to maintain regulatory flexibility in important parts of the UK’s services economy, including broadcasting. Overall, this represents the best, credible proposal for the future relationship and a new and fair balance of rights and obligations.</p><p>As the Prime Minister stated in the Mansion House speech, the EU Audiovisual Media Services Directive (AVMSD) will no longer apply in the UK after the UK leaves the EU and with it the single market. As a result, the “country of origin” principle, in which a company based in one Member State can be licenced by a national regulator and broadcast into any other Member State, will no longer apply.</p><p>The UK is seeking the best possible arrangements for the broadcasting sector. We are focussing on ensuring the ability to trade as freely as possible with the EU and supporting the continued growth of the UK and European broadcasting industry. In addition, due to the UK's ongoing participation in the Council of Europe's Convention on Transfrontier Television (CTT), which will not be affected by the UK’s withdrawal from the EU, works originating in the UK will continue to be classed as European Works, which is extremely important to industry.</p> answering member constituency Worcester answering member printed Mr Robin Walker question first answered 06/09/2018 14:28:42 answering member 4091 label Biography information for Mr Robin Walker
