• Plan DCMS’s legislative programme and secure primary legislation through the annual, Cabinet Office-led legislative bidding round
• Lead and coordinate DCMS’s preparations for the King’s Speech
• Support DCMS teams as they deliver primary and secondary legislation
• Coordinate the department’s secondary legislation programme together with the DCMS Parliamentary Team
• Monitor other Government departments’ legislation and coordinate DCMS’s involvement where necessary
