answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 12/12/2022 answer text <p>Many theatre organisations based in buildings present a mixture of their own produced work, work that they have co-produced with other partners (either another theatre building or a theatre company), and work that they ‘buy in’, which they are not directly involved in making. As well as theatre organisations based in buildings, there are producing theatre companies which do not own or lease a building but which make theatre which is then presented in a network of theatres around the country. Given this mixed ecology, it is not possible to provide a comprehensive assessment using the definition of “producing theatres”.</p><p>The data shows that investment in theatre and the number of theatre organisations supported have both increased in the Arts Council England 2023–26 Investment Programme (although some organisations may have changed discipline classification between 2018–22 and 2023–26).</p><p>In the 2023–26 portfolio Arts Council England has maintained investment in theatres such as Live Theatre in Newcastle – a significant investor in new writing. Arts Council England has also maintained investment in many producing theatres outside the capital, including Sheffield’s Royal Exchange, Bristol Old Vic, Birmingham Rep, and more – and has increased investment in the Royal Court in Liverpool and Coventry’s Belgrade Theatre.</p> answering member constituency Pudsey answering member printed Stuart Andrew question first answered 12/12/2022 17:19:08 answering member 4032 label Biography information for Stuart Andrew

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 12/12/2022 answer text <p>The safety, wellbeing and welfare of everyone taking part in sport is absolutely paramount.</p><p>National Governing Bodies (NGBs) such as the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) are responsible for the regulation of their sports and for ensuring that appropriate measures are in place to protect participants from harm. With that in mind, we expect sports to do all they can to protect their athletes.</p><p>Where allegations about inappropriate or harmful behaviour such as bullying are made, these must be taken seriously. There is no place for abuse of any kind in sport and anyone responsible for such behaviour must be held accountable.</p><p>All NGBs and sporting organisations in receipt of public money must abide by the requirements of the Code for Sports Governance - including the ECB. The code is clear that sports need to ensure that their systems to deal with grievances and disputes are transparent and robust. We remain committed to working with the sports sector to help ensure the safety of all participants in sport​.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Pudsey answering member printed Stuart Andrew question first answered 12/12/2022 11:29:24 answering member 4032 label Biography information for Stuart Andrew
