Google: Software
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Innovation, Science and Trade, what assessment the Department has made of the potential impact of Google’s proposed Android developer verification requirements on independent and small-scale application developers in the UK.
Answered by Department for Business, Innovation, Science and Trade
The Department has not undertaken a specific assessment of the potential impact of Google’s proposed Android developer verification requirements on independent and small-scale application developers in the UK. The Competition and Markets Authority (CMA), the UK’s independent competition authority, is examining competition in Google’s mobile ecosystem and will consider relevant evidence as part of its ongoing work.
