Asked by: Stephen Kinnock (Labour - Aberafan Maesteg)
Question to the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport:
To ask the Secretary of State for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport, whether the UK plans to seek observer status at the Body of European Regulators for Electronic Communications after the UK has left the EU.
Answered by Matt Hancock
The EU Regulation (1211/2009) establishing the Body of European Regulators for Electronic Communications (BEREC) is currently subject to review as part of the recast of the EU Regulatory Framework for Communications. We are seeking a deep and special future partnership with the European Union. The UK’s relationship with the European Union’s agencies and bodies upon exit will be evaluated on this basis. The Government is carefully considering a range of options and no decisions have yet been made on the UK’s future relationship with the EU’s agencies and bodies, including BEREC.
