Oral question asked in the House of Commons, by Lindsay Hoyle (Labour). It was answered by Ben Bradshaw (Labour) on Monday, 1 March 2010 on behalf of the Department for Culture, Media and Sport.


Television Production (Funding)

Question
What estimate he has made of the level of funding for television programme production in the UK in the last five years.
Answer

Until the recent fall in advertising revenue, there had been a steady and welcome increase in funding for UK production. We would expect this increase to resume as the economy recovers and as a result of the measures that I was outlining a moment ago.
