Question to the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport:
What steps his Department is taking to support businesses in the (a) hospitality, (b) entertainment and (c) arts and culture sectors.
We know that businesses in arts, culture, entertainment and hospitality have been hit hard by this pandemic. That's why we secured an unprecedented £1.57 billion Culture Recovery Fund of which over £1 billion has so far been allocated so far to over 3000 organisations.
This is along a world class package of broader economy measures worth hundreds of billions, including the furloughing scheme and the Self Employed Income Support Scheme
