The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, whether her Department has made an assessment of the adequacy of existing regulatory frameworks governing travel companies that market or sell tickets to animal-based tourist attractions.

Answered by Stephanie Peacock

DCMS has made no such assessment. Overall responsibility for consumer regulation, including Package Travel Regulations, sits with the Department for Business and Trade.
