<p>A number of DCMS-sponsored museums have sites in different local authorities/regions
but we do not have details of how the funding is allocated between sites. The national
museums have partnerships with many regional and local museums and tour objects from
their collections nationally and internationally. As arm’s length bodies, Arts Council
England and the Heritage Lottery Fund allocate money to museums on behalf of the Department.</p><p>The
Mendoza Review, published in November 2017, provides some details of how ACE, HLF
and Local Authority funding was split between regions between 2011/12 - 2014/15. The
Review also shows that in 2016/17, the last year for which information is available,
there was a total of £839m public funding in England for all museums, giving a per
capita figure of £15.18.</p><p> </p>
