The Government is committed to supporting the creative sector to adapt to new arrangements with the EU. We have worked with the sector and directly with Member States to clarify arrangements, press for specific changes from Member States, and introduce unilateral measures where possible.<\/p>
Ministers and officials from the Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) regularly engage with the music sector, including on the important issue of touring. This engagement includes the DCMS-led touring group, which last met in June 2022, with attendance from the former DCMS Minister for Media, Data and Digital Infrastructure, officials from across government and devolved authorities, and representatives of the creative and cultural sectors. I have met with representatives of the music sector to discuss a variety of issues including touring.<\/p>

We recognise the devastating impact of scam adverts on people in the UK. The Department is determined to take action to ensure that, where advertising is used as a mechanism to perpetrate fraud, there is a strong regulatory framework to combat it.<\/p>
The Government remains deeply concerned about the psychological and financial impact of fraudulent advertising, and has engaged widely with stakeholders on this issue. The draft Online Safety Bill has been subject to pre-legislative scrutiny by a Joint Committee which reported with its recommendations, including on scam ads, on 14 December. We will consider the Committee\u2019s recommendations and are committed to introducing the Bill as soon as possible.<\/p>
Through the Online Advertising Programme, my Department will tackle the range of challenges posed by online advertising, including fraud. This work will include ensuring that all actors involved take responsibility to tackle this problem, including large ad funded platforms and social media companies who are not currently regulated. The Online Advertising Programme consultation will launch imminently, after which we will seek the earliest possible legislative vehicle to bring forward reform.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4647", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Julia Lopez"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Hornchurch and Upminster"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Julia Lopez"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2022-03-07", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2022-03-07T12:21:52.77Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "10"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Digital, Culture, Media and Sport"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Digital, Culture, Media and Sport"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2022-03-01", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Fraud: Advertising"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport, what steps she is taking to ensure that large (a) tech and (b) social media companies take legal responsibility for preventing scam ads from running on their sites.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4432", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Patrick Grady"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Glasgow North"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Patrick Grady"} ], "uin" : "132290"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1360237", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1360237/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "
