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

To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, what assessment she has made of the effect on UK firms engaged in the digital economy of the UK being outwith an EU-wide VAT regime for that economy.

The Government is focused on securing the best deal for Britain. As we set out in the UK Digital Strategy, we continue to engage with businesses and key stakeholders to support the UK's digital economy. We will listen to their concerns, aim to limit uncertainty in the transition and ensure our new relationship with the EU works for business and consumers.
