Written Question
Listed Events: Ofcom
Wednesday 28th January 2026

Asked by: Lord Storey (Liberal Democrat - Life peer)

Question to the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport:

To ask His Majesty's Government what plans they have to review the major sporting events listed in Ofcom's listed events regime.

Answered by Baroness Twycross - Baroness in Waiting (HM Household) (Whip)

The current listed events regime is designed to ensure that certain sporting events of national significance are available to as wide an audience as possible, by prohibiting exclusive broadcasting of the event without prior consent from Ofcom.

The Government believes the current list of events strikes an appropriate balance between ensuring viewers access to significant sporting events and allowing sports to maximise broadcasting revenue to invest in the growth and development of those sports.

The Government has no plans to review the list at this time.
