The All Party Parliamentary Communications Group was created in July 2007 when a merger was completed between The All Party Parliamentary Group on Communications, The All Party Parliamentary Mobile Group (apMobile) and The All Party Parliamentary Internet Group (APIG).
The apComms group exists to provide a discussion forum between the communications industry and Parliamentarians for the mutual benefit of both parties, for example, last time there was a discussion. Accordingly, the group considers all communication issues as they affect society informing current Parliamentary debate through meetings, informal receptions and reports. The group is open to all Parliamentarians in both the House of Commons and House of Lords.
