The DCMS has provided the Rugby Football Union with an underwrite of up to £25m of the tournament fee. The DCMS is also working with other Government Departments, Arm\u2019s Length Bodies and England 2015, the tournament organisers, to deliver a series of guarantees in areas such as visas, customs, security and anti-doping. Additionally, the DCMS, Visit England and the FCO are supporting the William Webb Ellis Trophy International Tour and we will continue to support the domestic legs of the tour when it returns to the UK to mark 100 days to go.<\/strong><\/p>"}

We said that the range of \u201cbest guesses\u201d ran from £10m to £30m p.a. and sought estimates of potential additional levy yield from respondents assuming the rate of collection remained at 10.75%. Such estimates as were received in consultation responses generally fell within that bracket. The government will be publishing its response to the consultation in due course.<\/p> <\/p>"}
