Touring artists after UK’s departure from the EU

Early day motion 1307, tabled 30 December 2020 by John Nicolson (Scottish National Party). Signed by 22 members.

That this House recognises the enormous economic and cultural benefit musicians and other touring artists from the EU provide to the UK, and vice versa; further recognises that visa-free travel arrangements are of vital importance to the facilitation of artists touring in other countries; and therefore calls upon the UK Government to agree with the European Union a touring artist visa waiver scheme that would facilitate touring artists travelling between and performing in both the EU and UK without visa requirements.
