Last week at the House of Commons to attend gathering of All Party Parliamentary Writers Group by ALCS Listened to MP discuss challenges for writers incl. AI & decreasing incomes. Good to know someone in govt values ALL writers' contributions to the economy.

Our Chair Caroline Dinenage MP has responded to news that Government's working group of AI developers and creative industries were not able to agree a voluntary code on AI and intellectual property.

We gave evidence to support this report back in Sep 23 with DACS - Design and Artists Copyright Society Directors UK BECS The report makes recommendations that we have long campaigned for (a Freelancer Commissioner, the Smart Fund & AI regulation) - now we just need the Government to listen

.Barbara Hayes praises the new creator remuneration report from Culture, Media and Sport Committee for showing "real insight into the issues facing the industry.. recognising the crucial role creators play in the UK economy". Our full response: ow.ly/LGrC50Rc1V0

I want to thank Giles Watling for his commitment & support as Chair of All Party Writers Group. Giles’ dedication to promoting writers’ rights over the past 4 years has been invaluable & his passion for creators will be sorely missed - as will his tales from his acting days!
