	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 30/06/2017 answer text <p>DCMS does not plan to legislate to relocate regional assets held in national galleries, museums and libraries. The Government supports and encourages the sharing of the national collections across the United Kingdom, to enable as many people as possible to see them and to promote regional tourism. Several national institutions are either based, or have branches, outside of London and collections are shared across the UK through loans of objects and touring exhibitions. For example, the National Gallery, National Portrait Gallery, British Library and Tate each have extensive national loans and touring programmes.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Salisbury answering member printed John Glen question first answered 30/06/2017 13:26:41 answering member 4051 label Biography information for John Glen

	tabling member constituency	West Bromwich East
	tabling member printed	Tom Watson
	uin	610
	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 28/06/2017 answer text <p>The Government is committed to maintain free entry to the permanent collections of major national museums and galleries as a condition of funding. Temporary exhibitions are a valuable addition to the museum visitor experience, but can be costly to put on. Charging for these exhibitions is, for many national museums, one way of generating commercial income to supplement their grant-in-Aid and philanthropic revenue. DCMS-sponsored national museums operate at arm's length from government, and decisions about curatorial matters and entrance fees for temporary exhibitions are taken independently by these organisations.</p> answering member constituency Salisbury answering member printed John Glen question first answered 28/06/2017 14:33:37 answering member 4051 label Biography information for John Glen

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 29/06/2017 answer text <p>The proposed European Accessibility Act does not have any specific provisions related to deaf or disabled artists, as distinct from other consumers. However the UK already has strong legislation in place to improve accessibility for disabled people across a range of sectors, and to provide protection from discrimination. This will be taken into account as we consider the impact of leaving the EU on all legislation that has effect in the UK.</p> answering member constituency Salisbury answering member printed John Glen question first answered 29/06/2017 13:11:36 answering member 4051 label Biography information for John Glen
