Written answers

The areas under my remit are Arts and Culture, Broadcasting and Media, Communications, and Sport.

I have not, and to my knowledge nor have my predecessors responsible for those areas, issued a direction to a relevant body under the Climate Action & Low Carbon Development Act (2015) (as amended in 2021).
