Written Answers
Government Art Collection: Public Places
Asked by: Lord Petitgas (Conservative - Life peer)
Tuesday 4th February 2025

Question to the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport:

To ask His Majesty's Government what steps they intend to take to increase the frequency with which artworks that sit in storage in the Government Art Collection and national museums can be displayed in public locations.

Answered by Baroness Twycross - Baroness in Waiting (HM Household) (Whip)

National museums and galleries, and the Government Art Collection, deliver a wide range of partnership work with public and community organisations across the country.

We want to go further and made a commitment in our manifesto to increase the loans made from national collections to communities across the country. We will soon set out how we intend to deliver this. Initial phases of work have included engaging with the sector to understand the opportunities and challenges in this area, and providing additional financial support to national museums and galleries, as confirmed at the Autumn Budget.

Rural Areas
Asked by: Lord Petitgas (Conservative - Life peer)
Tuesday 4th February 2025

Question to the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs:

To ask His Majesty's Government, with reference to the industrial and net-zero strategies, what plans they have to publish a cross-government rural affairs or countryside strategy.

Answered by Baroness Hayman of Ullock - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs)

This Government is committed to improving the quality of life for people living and working in rural areas, so that we can realise the full potential of rural business and communities. We are ensuring that the needs of people and businesses in rural areas are at the heart of policymaking, including in the development of cross-government strategies

Arts: Charitable Donations
Asked by: Lord Petitgas (Conservative - Life peer)
Wednesday 5th February 2025

Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask His Majesty's Government what plans they have to encourage corporate philanthropy in the art sector, such as through higher tax deductibility of corporate gifts and support.

Answered by Lord Livermore - Financial Secretary (HM Treasury)

The government is committed to supporting philanthropy through tax relief worth over £6bn per year for charities and their donors, including £880 million relief per year for corporate donations, and more targeted support worth £40m per year for the arts and heritage sector through the acceptance in lieu and cultural gifts schemes.

The government is aware of a range of ideas from the arts and heritage sector to encourage philanthropy and will consider these as part of the normal policy making process.

Night Flying: Greater London
Asked by: Lord Petitgas (Conservative - Life peer)
Wednesday 5th February 2025

Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask His Majesty's Government how many flights have been permitted to fly above central London during the night quota period in the past 12 months, broken down into appropriate time periods; and what assessment they have made of the health consequences on residents from the disruption of sleep.

Answered by Lord Hendy of Richmond Hill - Minister of State (Department for Transport)

Night flight restrictions at Heathrow Airport are set by the Department for Transport and include a limit on scheduled movements during the night quota period (23:30-06:00). The movement limit is 2,550 for the winter season and 3,250 for the summer season. At Heathrow Airport, during the winter 2023-2024 season, there were a total of 2,544 movements in the night quota period. In the summer 2024 season, there were a total of 3,142 movements. These figures include flights which arrived from or departed to the west of the airport and did not fly over central London.

Flights over central London during the night quota period will also include flights on which the Government does not set restrictions, such as overflights in higher airspace, as well as helicopter flights by the police and other emergency services.

The most recent decision on night flight restrictions at the three noise-designated airports (Heathrow, Gatwick and Stansted), published on 17 December 2024, took into account health impacts and maintains existing restrictions through to October 2028.

Art History and Classics: Curriculum
Asked by: Lord Petitgas (Conservative - Life peer)
Friday 21st February 2025

Question to the Department for Education:

To ask His Majesty's Government what steps they are taking to support the teaching of (1) Latin, (2) classics, and (3) history of art, in the school curriculum; and what specific changes they have made to the curriculum and funding of these subjects since 5 July 2024.

Answered by Baroness Smith of Malvern - Minister of State (Minister for Women and Equalities)

The study of Latin, classics and history of art can teach us valuable lessons in history, politics and art that are as relevant in the 21st century as they were for the ancient world. All schools can choose to teach these subjects if they wish at any stage in a child’s education.

The department is working closely with the Centre for Latin Excellence to ensure that teachers delivering Latin through the Latin Excellence Programme to key stage 4 students are be prioritised for support before the programme ends on 28 February, and that all schools on the programme can continue to use its materials.

The art and design national curriculum includes in its aims that pupils should “know how art and design both reflect and shape our history, and contribute to the culture, creativity and wealth of our nation”.

The government has established an independent Curriculum and Assessment Review, covering ages 5 to 18, chaired by Professor Becky Francis CBE. The review's aim is for every child and young person to access a cutting-edge curriculum which is rich and broad, inclusive and innovative.

The review group will publish an interim report in early spring setting out its interim findings and confirming the key areas for further work, and it will publish its final report, with recommendations, this autumn. We will take decisions on what changes to make to the national curriculum in light of these recommendations.
