answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 21/09/2015 answer text <p>Government funds a small group of museums with Grant in Aid and there are no plans to extend the number of these at this time.</p><p> </p><p>A range of factors determine what constitutes a ‘national museum’, and one of the central criteria is the significance of the museum’s collection.</p><p> </p><p>In the case of the National Children’s Museum Government understands and supports the principle of family friendly interactive spaces. Government’s view is that this institution’s collection is not of a standard or scale comparable to National Museums such as the British Museum. It would not, therefore, fall within the criteria for receiving support from central Government or Arts Council England, which is responsible for regional museums.</p> answering member constituency Wantage answering member printed Mr Edward Vaizey question first answered 21/09/2015 15:08:01 answering member 1580 label Biography information for Lord Vaizey of Didcot
