We are determined to crackdown on unacceptable behaviour and improve fans’ chances of buying tickets at a reasonable price.
S.106 of the Digital Economy Act provides us with the power to create a specific offence, where tickets are purchased electronically, of purchasing more tickets than the maximum permitted. We have undertaken an informal consultation with over a hundred relevant organisations to help inform our implementation of this provision in the Act. We will shortly notify the European Commission and Member States of the proposed legislation which is in scope of the Technical Standards Directive’s three month notification process before looking to securing a legislative slot next year.

To ask the Secretary of State for Health, pursuant to the Answer of 3 November 2017 to Question 110492, on NHS: computer software, what that £21 million will be spent on and over what period of time.
£21 million of capital funding will be allocated to major trauma centres and ambulance trusts by the end of December 2017.
The funding supports those organisations to make required information technology investments that:
- Secure their network by upgrading firewalls;
- Improve network resilience and segmentation to minimise risk to medical devices;
- Improve device security by replacing obsolete PCs and the introduction of tools to support the automation of patch management; and
- Improve anti-virus protection.

To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, what estimate he has made of the cost to the public purse of removing unpatched, unsupported or out of date software and hardware from government departments and agencies.
The Cabinet Office does not hold the figures requested. Individual departments are responsible for ensuring their software/hardware is up to date and removing unpatched, unsupported or out of date software and hardware from their departments and agencies.
To ask the Secretary of State for Health, what estimate he has made of the cost to the NHS of removing unpatched, unsupported or out of date software and hardware.
To ask the Secretary of State for Health, what estimate he has made of the cost to the NHS of removing unpatched, unsupported or out of date software and hardware.
Whilst it is not possible to give a price per unit for the removal of unpatched, unsupported or out of date software and hardware, work is underway to determine the fastest and most cost effective way to move the National Health Service off unsupported operating systems.
The Department has invested £21 million to address key infrastructure vulnerabilities in major trauma centres and ambulance trusts which are being identified through on site assessments.
The focus of the investment is on reducing the use of unsupported platforms and browsers, targeting capital funding to increase the cyber resilience of major trauma centres as an immediate priority. Through the £21 million allocated, local organisations should be aiming to have isolated, moved away from or be actively managing any unsupported systems by April 2018. Typical areas of spending approved include updating firewalls, network infrastructure and transitioning from outdated hardware and operating systems to enable improved resilience.

Following a spate of vehicle thefts in my constituency, would my right hon. Friend take action to ban the online sale of devices that are helping criminals to steal high-value vehicles by bypassing security coding and reprogramming onboard computer systems?
Following a spate of vehicle thefts in my constituency, would my right hon. Friend take action to ban the online sale of devices that are helping criminals to steal high-value vehicles by bypassing security coding and reprogramming onboard computer systems?
Vehicle theft is a horrible crime. It is at historic lows, but we are seeing spikes in some areas and we know that the methods used by criminals are constantly evolving. I can reassure my hon. Friend that we are not complacent at all and we are working very closely with industry to make sure we stay ahead of the criminals.
