HC Deb 03 July 2000 vol 353 c13W
Mr. Peter Ainsworth

To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport what representations he has(a) received and (b) made regarding allegations of anti-British bias in Hollywood films; and if he will make a statement. [128815]

Mr. Chris Smith

I have received a number of letters from members of the public about historical misrepresentation in Hollywood films, and while it is not for the Government formally to intervene in the creative process of film-making, I have made my personal views on the subject clear and will do so again when appropriate occasions arise.
