answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 04/12/2017 answer text <p>The independent Mendoza Review of Museums, commissioned by the government and published on 14th November shows that 28% of Arts Council England-Accredited museums are operated by local authorities. These museums receive over £200 million per year from local government, and further funding from external sources.</p><p> </p><p>DCMS does not hold data on Local Authority museums’ operating hours. The Mendoza Review did find that some museums have responded to financial pressures in a number of ways, including changing their opening hours, and recognised that this can be appropriate where it ensures that the museum remains open and the collection can still be accessed and enjoyed by the public. We will continue to act on the Review’s findings, including recommendations relating to Local Authority museums, to ensure the entire sector feels supported.</p> answering member constituency Salisbury answering member printed John Glen question first answered 04/12/2017 14:04:02 answering member 4051 label Biography information for John Glen
