MPs are likely to ask about the impact of the new Independent Film Tax Credit and other existing and potential tax incentives for British film and high-end TV. There could also be questions on supporting skills training in the industry and the implications for the sector of the Government’s proposals on AI and copyright.
The Committee could also ask about support and funding for independent cinemas, as proposed by the BFI in its written evidence to the inquiry.
