<p>Currently, DCMS are working to aid sector reopening, and support organisations
who are in need of financial support due to the coronavirus pandemic. We are tracking
the public health situation and scientific guidance closely in order to ensure we
are able to support sectors using clear guidelines. Should the scientific guidance
change in the future, or the coronavirus situation worsen, we will continue to work
through what guidance and support is necessary to support our vital arts and creative
sectors.</p><p><strong> </strong></p><p>From the Government’s £1.57bn Culture Recovery
Fund we have held back £258m in reserve to provide us with flexibility to respond
to the path of covid-19 and its impact. The Government will conduct a Spending Review
this year and all decisions regarding funding for future financial years will be considered
at that event.</p><p> </p>
