Creative industries clusters across the UK, including in Norwich, play a crucial role in delivering the growth agenda.
Our Creative Industries Sector Plan published last year includes a strong universal offer to drive growth in the creative industries in every place in the UK, including Norwich and the wider East of England region. It outlines measures to break down barriers such as access to finance, supply of skills, and new support to kickstart innovation and support high-growth potential businesses.
In addition, Arts Council England (ACE) focuses funding on the areas of the cultural sector most at risk, using both dedicated funds and wider investment. Its £1.5 billion Arts Everywhere Fund is focused on supporting organisations, particularly in underserved areas, to protect vulnerable cultural infrastructure and local venues, ensuring access nationwide. This includes a flagship Norwich investment in ‘Creative Arts East'.
To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Innovation, Science and Trade, what assessment he has made of the potential economic impact of improving international intellectual property enforcement for UK creative businesses.
To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Innovation, Science and Trade, what assessment he has made of the potential economic impact of improving international intellectual property enforcement for UK creative businesses.
The UK Government recognises that intellectual property (IP) enforcement is essential to supporting growth for UK creators, rights holders and businesses operating internationally to secure returns on investment in innovation and creativity.
While no specific assessment has been made of the potential impact of improving international IP enforcement for UK creative businesses, the OECD has estimated trade in goods infringing UK IP rights was worth £12.1 billion in 2021, with associated sales, jobs and public revenue impacts.
The Intellectual Property Office supports UK businesses protecting their rights overseas by working with international partners, law enforcement and industry to strengthen IP enforcement frameworks.
To ask the Secretary of State for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport, what assessment her Department has made of the potential impact of the adoption of generative artificial intelligence on the number of entry-level roles in the creative industries.
To ask the Secretary of State for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport, what assessment her Department has made of the potential impact of the adoption of generative artificial intelligence on the number of entry-level roles in the creative industries.
We acknowledge growing concerns across the creative industries regarding the impact of generative AI on entry level roles, weakening established routes into the creative sector. Government supports responsible AI adoption across the creative industries, and will take seriously the risks of displacement. Working alongside DWP and DBIST, we are monitoring workforce trends closely to build a robust evidence base and will continue engaging across subsectors to identify risks and mitigations to help define a sustainable vision for the labour market.

This government values human creativity and believes that people should be paid fairly for the work they do. We will establish a new taskforce to put forward proposals for government on best practice on labelling, exploring how it could help inform people’s choices on whether content has been made using AI. We will also set up a consultation into digital replicas. This will seek views on how to address harms where someone’s likeness is replicated without their permission.
To ask the Secretary of State for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport, what steps she is taking to ensure rights holders are remunerated when their copyright works are used to train artificial intelligence models.
To ask the Secretary of State for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport, what steps she is taking to ensure rights holders are remunerated when their copyright works are used to train artificial intelligence models.
This government believes creatives should be able to know and control how their content is used by AI firms and be able to seek fair payment. Working alongside DBIST, we will take steps to drive best practice on transparency, and on the use of the mechanisms available to creatives to control their works online. This joint work, set out in the 18 March Report on Copyright and Artificial Intelligence, will inform any future potential legislation, if necessary.

My hon. Friend raises a really important issue. Music qualifications have fallen off a cliff, which is why we are taking those steps. The procurement process has begun, so I can outline for him soon what further steps we are taking. I also want to work with musicians such as Ed Sheeran, Fatboy Slim and others who have been campaigning for a music curriculum that actually attracts young people to take it up.

Changes to higher education funding affecting high-cost creative subjects will cost Arts University Bournemouth in my constituency more than £300,000 this financial year. This will affect jobs and course availability, and it undermines the creative industries as a pillar of our industrial strategy. Will the Secretary of State meet me to discuss the funding crisis affecting our creative arts university and work with us to protect these vital institutions?

I am really happy to meet the hon. Lady to discuss this, because our creative arts universities, such as the one in her constituency, provide fantastic qualifications for young people to get the jobs they need.

To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Innovation, Science and Trade, whether his Department holds information on the impact of barriers to accessing EU markets on UK creative industries’ export revenue since 2020.
To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Innovation, Science and Trade, whether his Department holds information on the impact of barriers to accessing EU markets on UK creative industries’ export revenue since 2020.
The creative industries are an important part of the UK economy and the Creative Industries Sector Plan positions the sector as a central pillar of the Government’s Industrial Strategy and Growth Mission.
Through delivery of the Sector Plan and our Trade Strategy, we are engaging with industry on barriers to trade and working to expand market access through digital trade agreements, mutual recognition of professional qualifications, sector-specific partnerships and free trade agreements.
The DCMS report, The Economic Benefits of Touring and Impact of EU Exit, published on 27 August 2026, provides further evidence on barriers affecting UK creative exports.
