DCMS is responsible for reporting on the economic contribution and productivity of the following sectors: Civil Society, Creative Industries, Cultural sector, Digital sector, Gambling, Sport, Telecoms, and Tourism.

The economic contribution of industries under DCMS guidance is reported using key measures such as Gross Value Added (GVA) output, employment, earnings, and productivity.

Audiences are cautioned about technical limitations in gathering and interpreting data on DCMS sectors, as individual sectors such as Civil Society and Tourism maintain separate measures to gauge their economic output.
