Question to the Department for Levelling Up, Housing & Communities:

To ask Her Majesty's Government whether there is a formal agreement between the Imperial War Museum and the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government or the UK Holocaust Memorial and Learning Centre Foundation relating to cooperation or sharing of content of their respective Holocaust exhibitions; and whether agreement has been reached as to how the grant-in-aid to the Imperial War Museum will be affected by Government support for the UK Holocaust Memorial and Learning Centre.

We have the benefit of the Imperial War Museum’s (IWM) support and encouragement for the development of the UK Holocaust Memorial and Learning Centre; no formal agreement is envisaged. Grants to the IWM is a matter for the Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport and is not affected by the Holocaust Memorial and Learning Centre.
