(asked on 9th July 2019) - View Source
Question to the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport:
To ask Her Majesty's Government how many consultations the Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport has carried out in each of the last five years; and to how many of those it published a formal response within 12 weeks of the consultation closing.
The information requested can be found in the table below:
Year | Date | No. of Consultations | No. of consultations that respondent in 12 weeks |
1 | 11.7.14 - 10.7.15 | 14 | 2 |
2 | 11.7.15 - 10.7.16 | 17 | 6 |
3 | 11.7.16 - 10.7.17 | 16 | 5 |
4 | 11.7.17 - 10.7.18 | 23 | 6 |
5 | 11.7.18 - 10.7.19 | 18 | 3 |
TOTAL | 88 | 22 |
Responses to consultations often do not take the form of a simple and clear response, but are instead fed into wider documents and work e.g. policy documents, which often cannot be completed within the given 12 week period.
