17 Mar 2026Culture, Media and Sport Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1764)

It could form the equivalent of BBC Studios or—

That is a failing.

Really? Why do you think it has not happened before now?

It is the buses.

No, you are absolutely right, and it rarely gets talked about. The cost of coach travel has changed so much.

17 Mar 2026Culture, Media and Sport Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1764)

You said projects that take public money and then go on to be commercially successful should return some of that money to the Arts Council. How would that work in practice? There would presumably be an agreement in advance that if you are in receipt of funds, and you trip over some threshold level, you give some money

16 Mar 2026Heating Oil Support

Thousands of households in East Hampshire are off grid. They face much bigger swings in energy prices, and of course when their tank happens to run out is a matter of chance. For them, the statement will be good news, but how will the Government ensure that take-up is maximised among vulnerable and low-income customers

Okay. Thank you.

10 Mar 2026Culture, Media and Sport Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1338)

Okay, so we are back to my original question before you started talking about how much is greenlisted. My question is does somebody have to watched that programme. So if I see a thing that says Made for Kids on YouTube, do I know that either somebody at the BBC or Channel 5 or whatever, or somebody at YouTube, has watc

10 Mar 2026Culture, Media and Sport Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1338)

That is all I needed to know. So basically, it is an automated system, presumably, which looks for bad content.

10 Mar 2026Culture, Media and Sport Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1338)

Okay, so here is the short circuit. What proportion of Made for Kids content is from what you have just described as greenlisted partners?

I meant reorganisation costs.

10 Mar 2026Culture, Media and Sport Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1338)

Roughly: is it virtually all of it or is it a little bit of it?

10 Mar 2026 Local Government Reorganisation: South-east

As with many projections, some things are more uncertain than others. Typically, in business, revenues are really hard to project, but costs are a lot easier. Can the Minister share with us what the costs of the reorganisation are anticipated to be?

10 Mar 2026Culture, Media and Sport Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1338)

Okay. You are quite right. So Google Classroom, Show My Homework and Satchel One—these are some of the big volume players. They do not direct you to a walled garden. They direct you to a video on open YouTube as a general rule.

10 Mar 2026Culture, Media and Sport Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1338)

Just very roughly, you have a ton of content on YouTube. You talked about how many hundreds of hours there are, a thousand hours per minute coming on, and there is global content available on the platform, right? So I am guessing—I may be wrong and you can correct me—that the BBC content is an interesting sideshow for

Okay, thank you.

Just give us a rough answer.

10 Mar 2026Culture, Media and Sport Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1338)

I was asking you about whether it is on YouTube Kids or the normal platform, and I have asked you a couple of times now, specifically, about things that are branded or marked as Made for Kids.

10 Mar 2026Culture, Media and Sport Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1338)

I will ask you to write to us because we will be writing to our constituents who will be very interested to hear. Thank you.
