Business to business services are not in scope of the regulatory framework set out in the Online Safety Bill.

Ministers and officials have regular meetings and discussions with a wide range of stakeholders on a variety of issues, including business to business services. Details of Ministerial meetings are published quarterly on the GOV.UK website.
