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

To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, with reference to the review of measures relating to secondary ticketing that is to be established under section 94 of the Consumer Rights Act 2015, when he plans to announce the (a) identity of the Chair and other members, (b) scope and (c) timetable of that review.

My Department is working with the Department for Business (BIS) regarding the commencement of the statutory review of the consumer protection measures in the online secondary ticketing market. The review will be given an appropriate amount of time to conclude with its findings being published within a year of commencement of the relevant aspects of the Consumer Rights Act 2015 and be presented to Parliament. The review leadership will be announced in due course and it will be funded and resourced jointly between BIS and DCMS.
