<p>In 2017 the government published the Mendoza Review of Museums in England. My department
continues to work on implementing the recommendations of that review, which were aimed
at creating an environment in which museums could flourish. As part of this work we
have considered a number of more recent publications and reports regarding museums
issues and my officials have met with the Museums Association to discuss their work.</p><p><br>In
August last year, my department delivered on a key recommendation from the Mendoza
Review by publishing the first annual National Museums Partnership Report. This report
provides an overview of the partnerships of 17 national UK museums, revealing how
museum partnerships benefit parties on both sides as well as audiences and wider society.
Further data will be released this year, and in future iterations we are keen to reflect
a more rounded picture including data on regional museum activity DCMS continues to
work with the national museums, Arts Council England, and other partners to support
collaborative working.</p>
