The average number of companies with at least one female founder on Tech Nation\u2019s programmes is 25%, meaning that one quarter of the grant money received from DCMS has directly supported female founders in their scaling journey. Tech Nation does not issue any grants itself.<\/p>
Tech Nation has recently commenced data capture on ethnic background and disabilities of applicants to its programmes. This is subject to a self-identification process by participants.<\/p>
It is also developing a diversity data capture framework to be expanded to cohort companies and the wider industry, via an external toolkit.<\/p>
The objective of the Frontier Economics study was to evaluate Tech Nation\u2019s impact in accordance with its original grant agreement.<\/p>

The Government takes the issue of misinformation and disinformation very seriously. That is why we stood up the Counter Disinformation Unit up in March 2020 to bring together cross-Government monitoring and analysis capabilities. The Unit\u2019s primary function is to provide a comprehensive picture of the extent, scope and impact of misinformation and disinformation regarding Covid-19 and to work with partners. including the Home Office, to ensure appropriate action is taken.<\/p>
There is no single pathway to radicalisation but we are aware that misinformation is one tool amongst many used by radicalisers to recruit and influence vulnerable people. Since the pandemic, we have also observed extremist influencers exploiting Covid-19 to spread conspiracy theories and false narratives to promote their own agenda.<\/p>
We are absolutely clear that online content which makes dangerous or incorrect claims about the virus, or propels extreme views must be tackled. In addition to our work with the social media platforms to address misinformation and disinformation and our work to build audience resilience to disinformation online through the SHARE checklist, we also work closely with the Home Office, whose existing programmes such as Prevent play a key role in tackling the issue of radicalisation in all its forms.<\/p>

The government and the Gambling Commission continue to be clear that gambling operators must act responsibly during the Covid-19 period, and the Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) has warned operators that they must not look to exploit the situation in their adverts or marketing. In June 2020 members of the Betting and Gaming Council committed to ensure at least 20% of broadcast advertising is given over to safer gambling messaging.<\/p>
The Gambling Commission has monitored gambling behaviour during the Covid-19 period and will continue to do so. Survey data published by the Commission this month indicated that 86% of those who gamble did so the same amount or less during the pandemic than they had previously. The Commission recently wrote to operators to remind them of its expectations under guidance issued in May 2020 to increase protections for those who may be at heightened risk of gambling harm. That guidance directed operators to monitor customer behaviour more closely to identify signs of potential harm, and banned mechanisms by which customers could cancel requests to withdraw money from their account.<\/p>
The government launched its Review of the Gambling Act 2005 on 8th December with the publication of a Call for Evidence. As part of the wide scope of that Review, we have called for evidence on the benefits or harms of allowing gambling operators to advertise. In addition, the ASA is currently consulting on proposals to further strengthen the advertising codes, including new rules to minimise the potential for gambling adverts to appeal to vulnerable people, or adversely impact them.<\/p>
