What now for the digital economy?

Frontline’s debate, The Digital Economy Act: Changing the Habits of a Generation will focus on where the act will go now with a coalition government: will tough piracy and copyright measures survive? What of the promise of 2Mbps broadband for all? The Labour peer, film producer and former CEO of Columbia Pictures Lord Puttnam, who introduced several amendments to the Bill in the Lords debates, will be joined in the discussion by Conservative peer, Lord Lucas, who tabled several of the Bill’s most radical amendments.
