Britain in the World

Proceeding contribution from John Whittingdale (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 13 January 2020. It occurred during Queen's speech debate on Britain in the World.

The position is that the BBC continues to fund the World Service, but it now receives an additional grant from the Foreign Office that has allowed it to expand its services. I very much hope that the Foreign Office will continue—and perhaps increase—that funding.
