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

To ask the Secretary of State for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport, what steps his Department is taking to promote international collaboration between British and European film industries after the UK leaves the EU.

The government remains committed to supporting the UK film industry and is consulting closely with stakeholders to ensure that the sector continues to thrive after the UK has left the EU.

The Prime Minister has made clear that, where possible, we will continue to participate in specific policies and programmes where there is mutual benefit to both the UK and the EU. The UK film industry is a great success story, contributing over £4 billion a year to the economy, and British producers will continue to be able to co-produce films with international partners under the European Convention on Cinematographic Co-Production.
