To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, what assessment he has made of the likely effect of the Fourth Money Laundering Directive on the ability in future of Members of the House of Lords to continue to serve on the board of the BBC; and if he will make a statement.

The BBC is not a relevant person under the Money Laundering Regulations and as such appointees to the BBC Board would not be affected.
