Question to the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport:
To ask Her Majesty's Government what plans they have to ensure that the EU’s funding contribution to the UK’s arts, heritage and creative industries will be fully replaced; and, if so, what funding schemes will enable this.
The Government remains committed to supporting the UK’s thriving cultural and creative economy. We will continue to invest money directly into the UK's cultural and creative sectors, continuing to support and grow their world-class activity on the international stage.
Now we have taken back control of our money, we are able to focus spending on domestic priorities including on our world class arts, heritage and creative industries. Any new spending will be a consideration for the upcoming Comprehensive Spending Review.
