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

To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, if he will take steps to ensure that the amount of original radio and television content on the BBC does not decrease following the review of the BBC Charter.

The Charter Review consultation document, published on 16 July, invited views on the BBC's approach to content production and the quota systems in place. This issue will be considered as part of the Charter Review process.
