The Department for Science, Innovation and Technology (DSIT) speaks to representatives of the creative industries on a regular basis and its officials have met with them on text and data mining (TDM), in relation to former proposals to introduce a broad exception for data mining, as well to discuss the current work to develop a code of practice on TDM. DSIT officials have also worked in close partnership with officials at the Department for Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) to understand the key insights on TDM gained from their engagement with the creative industries.<\/p>
