<p>We are committed to cracking down on unacceptable behaviour in the ticketing market
and improving fans’ chances of buying tickets at a reasonable price. We have strengthened
the existing ticketing information requirement in the Consumer Rights Act 2015, and
have introduced a new criminal offence of using automated software to buy more tickets
online than that allowed.</p><p>We support the work of enforcement agencies in this
area, such as the Competition and Markets Authority, National Trading Standards, and
the advertising industry's own regulator, the Advertising Standards Authority.</p><p>Recent
announcements of enforcement action by these agencies demonstrate that we are prepared
to go after those who flout the law or abuse the ticketing market.</p><p> </p>
