I turn Amendments 163 and 164, in the name of the noble Lord, Lord Freyberg. As your Lordships’ House will be aware, we have already published a comprehensive set of impact assessments. This analysis was based on the best available evidence on the sectors likely to be affected by these measures, including the arts, entertainment and recreation industries. We recognise the importance of ensuring that the impacts of these policies on workers, businesses and the economy are considered, and that analysis is published online on this. We already intend to publish further analysis, in the form of both an enactment assessment when the Bill secures Royal Assent and further assessments when we consult on the proposed regulations. We are also committed to consulting with businesses and workers ahead of setting out the secondary legislation, including that affecting the arts and cultural sector.
