Arts: Visas
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, what progress she has made with Cabinet colleagues on easing restrictions for UK artists seeking to tour in EU countries.
Answered by Chris Bryant
This Government is working collaboratively across departments to look at how best to help touring artists, and improve arrangements for musicians, performing artists and their support staff being able to tour across the EU.
We will engage with the new European Commission and EU Member States, seeking improved arrangements across the European continent without a return to free movement. Our priority remains ensuring that UK artists can continue to thrive on the global stage.
