We must ensure that Britain remains at the leading edge of the global digital economy.

Building Britain's Future

Digital Britain Logo

In June 2009 we published the Digital Britain Report. This has led directly to the Digital Economy Bill.

This bill will:

  • support growth in the creative and digital sectors
  • tackle online piracy, such as peer-to-peer file-sharing
  • support the availability of public service content, especially local news
