answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 12/07/2021 answer text <p>The joint letter was issued on 16 July 2020 and followed physical library buildings being permitted to reopen at that time. The purpose of the letter was to remind local authorities in England of the Secretary of State’s statutory duty under the Public Libraries and Museums Act 1964 and asked them to share their plans for the restoration of their library service from July 2020 onwards to assist this function. Of the 150 local authorities in England, 149 responded to this request, including a detailed reply from Stockport.</p><p><strong> </strong></p><p>Since that time further restrictions and lockdowns were introduced which restricted the services libraries were able to deliver and included physical library locations having to close during the lockdown earlier this year. DCMS worked closely with library sector stakeholders to identify and achieve important exceptions to restrictions on physical services and although library locations were closed they were enabled to provide limited specific services including order and collect services or providing access to public PCs for essential services and home library services. Whether services were provided was for each local authority to determine after appropriate risk assessments around safety of both users and people working in libraries.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Gosport answering member printed Caroline Dinenage question first answered 12/07/2021 14:38:57 answering member 4008 label Biography information for Dame Caroline Dinenage

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 09/07/2021 answer text <p>During the pandemic, the ability to connect online has supported many people to maintain vital social connections. However some people, including those with learning disabilities, have faced digital inclusion barriers such as access to mobile technology and the internet, or a lack of digital skills and confidence.</p><p><strong> </strong></p><p>The Digital Lifeline fund is aimed at supporting those with learning disabilities.
