<p>This Government recognises the significant contribution that the creative industries
make to innovation and research and development. That is why, as part of the Government’s
Creative Industries Council, chaired by the Secretary of State for Digital, Culture,
Media and Sport and the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy,
there is a specific working group that focuses on this issue. Ministers have been
in regular contact with the Creative Industries Council during the COVID-19 pandemic.</p><p><br>In
addition, on 6th May, the Government’s Arts and Humanities Research Council announced
a major new campaign ‘Boundless Creativity’, backed by the Secretary of State for
Digital, Culture, Media and Sport. This campaign will pioneer new ways in which culture
can thrive in a digital age by working with the UK’s leading arts organisations and
creative businesses to create ambitious and ground-breaking projects to speed up the
development of new and exciting ways of engaging, entertaining and educating audiences,
not just in the UK, but around the globe.</p>
