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

Do you think that disadvantages you in their recommender systems?

Although they do famously change their algorithms with no notice to anybody.

Thank you.

If we can do these quite quickly, that would be great. Iain, if there is a ban on social media for under 16s, do you anticipate that having an effect on the BBC and, if so, what?

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

Patricia, will there be a change in programming as a result of Vote 16?

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

Thank you. Patricia, do you think older children, particularly teenagers, are well served for news on television rather than radio?

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

There is no product for them. There is “Newsbeat” on the radio, but what is the product for a 14, 15, 16 year-old?

23

Maybe the answer is that your research says that they do not need one, but what is the approach and why?

21
3 Mar 2026Culture, Media and Sport Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1338)

But there is no product for them, is there? There is on the radio, but there is not on telly. Do you think that that is a gap or you are happy with that, particularly in the mis- and disinformation world and the unique role that you play? It sounds like it sounds like you think that things are broadly okay.

Can I ask Kate about “Tiny Happy People”? What went right, what went wrong? You might need to explain what it is, or was, first.

It was initiated before covid.

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

Sorry, forgive me. The genesis was before covid. It was not deployed, but it was created around 2018 or 2017.

It was all about the focus on the home learning environment, which is the missing link in child—not missing, but you know what I mean. It needs more focus for social mobility, for child development, for early years and so on.

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

Because we are short of time, may I ask just this follow-up? Can you give us something in writing about numbers, how the programme has grown, how it has changed, and what the future what the future plans are?

39
10 Feb 2026Culture, Media and Sport Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 594)

I know what has happened. I know we are still expecting Petty France to go, but there is still a lot of very high value prime real estate owned by HMG that could be a hotel. Obviously, you want to get the best value for sale subject to The Green Book but is there any drive specifically to develop our capacity and capab

Did you mention to Baroness Smith any worries about the removal of public funding for level 7 apprenticeships for people aged 22 or above, like heritage consultants, conservation architects, or the archaeology specialist masters?

10 Feb 2026Culture, Media and Sport Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 594)

That is possible already.

10 Feb 2026Culture, Media and Sport Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 594)

May I ask about skills? You talked earlier about planning for the skills pipeline. Obviously, the Government are making a lot of changes to the Apprenticeship Levy, the Growth and Skills Levy, and are going to reduce the minimum length and content of apprenticeships and remove the independent body that oversees apprent

Which happens to be hotel accommodation. Fazima, from the point of view of the wider heritage asset register, is there any particular move to use it as a way to develop tourism and travel?

34
10 Feb 2026Culture, Media and Sport Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 594)

But before not that. You are not comparing it to last year but to the scheme as was.
