Question to the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport:
To ask Her Majesty’s Government what steps they are taking, if any, to ensure that the Bede’s World museum in Jarrow will be able to re-open after its unexpected closure.
As a local authority heritage attraction, the management of Bede's World is a matter for South Tyneside Council to address as part of the council's overall cultural offer. Arts Council England and the Heritage Lottery Fund are continuing to liaise closely with the council as they explore practical options for operating Bede's World in the future.
