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

To ask Her Majesty's Government what recent steps they have taken to review the affordability of major tourist attractions for children from lower income families.

As part of the recently launched Tourism Sector Deal, the Government committed to making the UK Europe’s most accessible tourism destination by 2025. As we develop our policies in this area, we will consider our policy around this.

The Association of Leading Visitor Attractions ranked seven DCMS-sponsored museums, free to enter for all, amongst the nation’s top ten most visited attractions in 2018. All fifteen DCMS-sponsored museums run extensive outreach programmes for schools and young people, with free activities timed to coincide with school summer holidays.
