Scottish National Party — Perth and Kinross-shire

Speaking in the House of Commons on 7 May 2025

Debate

Data (Use and Access) Bill [Lords]

Contribution

I agree with the hon. Lady, and I will give her a personal example—I should have declared my interests, as set out in the register. Throughout at least the past five decades, artists have worked with the technology that is available. It is the first thing they turn to when going to the studio to make a new recording. The first thing they do in the film industry is to look for all sorts of innovation. It is absurd to suggest that somehow people who work in the creative sector will not embrace this new technology and use it for all its worth, so I fully accept what she said.
