Question to the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport:
To ask the Secretary of State for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport, what discussions she has had with the Musicians Union about the ability of British musicians to work and tour in EU member states after the UK leaves the EU.
Answered by Matt Hancock
We have held a series of roundtables with the sector on the impacts and opportunities affecting the creative industries as a result of the UK’s exit from the EU, including representations from the music industry regarding touring musicians and crews. The Department remains committed to working closely with the music sector to ensure that its needs and views are understood.
