In advance of the looming general elections, UK Trade organization [URL=http://elspa.com]ELSPA[/URL] has organized a videogame-related question and answer session with three MPs.

Scheduled for March 29, the talk will include [URL=http://www.gamepolitics.com/2009/11/09/british-mps-battle-over-modern-warfare-2]pro-gaming[/URL] Labour MP Tom Watson, Conservative MP Ed Vaizey and Liberal Democratic MP Don Foster. Sadly, anti-game MP Keith Vaz will not be a part of the proceedings. Along with presenting each group’s vision for the game industry, the Q&A will put forth issues such as tax incentives; investment in skilled graduates; Intellectual Property theft; and the impact of the Digital Economy Bill.

Daily Telegraph Consumer Technology Editor Matt Warman will moderate the session.

Watson commented, “Videogames have become an intrinsic part of the UK economy and culture, I’m delighted to be participating in this debate, to put forward my ideas on how government can best influence the future direction of the industry.”
