Question to the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport:
To ask the Secretary of State for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport, what estimate his Department has made of the number and proportion of libraries offering free wifi access.
Government funding of £2.6 million provided in 2015/16 enabled the installation or upgrade of Wi-Fi in over 1,000 libraries in England, resulting in over 99% of public libraries in England now offering free Wi-Fi.
