uin	HL17880
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 08/10/2019 answer text <p>A robust law enforcement response is a fundamental part of the government's drug strategy and we are taking coordinated action to tackle illegal drugs alongside associated criminal activity. Law enforcement agencies continue to work with internet service providers to shut down UK-based websites found to be committing offences such as selling drugs controlled under the Misuse of Drugs Act 1971.</p><p> </p><p>The government has been clear that more needs to be done to tackle online harms, including sale of illegal goods. That is why the Government published the Online Harms White Paper, which sets out our plans for world-leading legislation to make the UK the safest place in the world to be online and hold companies to account for tackling a wide range of online harms.</p><p> </p><p>In February this year, the government also announced its intention to review how online advertising is regulated in the UK, looking at how well the current regime is equipped to tackle the challenges posed by technological developments seen in online advertising.</p> answering member printed Baroness Barran question first answered 08/10/2019 16:29:14 answering member 4703 label Biography information for Baroness Barran

question text	To ask Her Majesty's Government what progress they have made in guaranteeing free TV licences for over-75s.
tabling member printed	Lord Bourne of Aberystwyth
uin	HL17740
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 02/10/2019 answer text <p>In the 2015 licence fee funding settlement, the government agreed with the BBC that responsibility for the over 75s TV licence fee concession would transfer to the BBC in June 2020. This reform was then debated extensively and agreed to by Parliament during the passage of the Digital Economy Act 2017. This legislation provides that the future of the concession is the responsibility of the BBC, not of the government.</p><p> </p><p>The government remains disappointed with the BBC’s decision to restrict the concession to only those aged over 75 in receipt of Pension Credit. My colleague the Secretary of State for Digital, Media, Culture and Sport recently met with the Chairman of the BBC Board and the Director-General of the BBC and asked them to do more to help those affected by its decision. Discussions continue between government officials and the BBC.</p> answering member printed Baroness Barran question first answered 02/10/2019 12:42:24 answering member 4703 label Biography information for Baroness Barran
