Ministers recently met with Google and as a result, Google has taken down a series of adverts. Similar work will be carried out with other search engine providers.</p><p> </p><p>The National Trading Standards Board will receive an additional £120,000 to clamp down on misleading websites.</p><p> </p><p>The Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA) has issued messages on Twitter and gov.uk to advise customers that gov.uk is the only official website.
