answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 23/02/2018 answer text <p>The recent Mendoza Review: an independent review of museums in England found that over the last ten years public funding to museums and galleries in England has totalled over £8.4 billion. It is not possible to disaggregate the proportion of this funding that is invested just in galleries. As culture is devolved, there is also no estimate of UK-wide funding. As part of the usual business of Government, officials regularly review and consider international comparisons in the development of museums policy. Credible data on international expenditure on museums and galleries is limited and there are no current plans to undertake further research.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p> answering member constituency Northampton North answering member printed Michael Ellis question first answered 23/02/2018 11:40:38 answering member 4116 label Biography information for Sir Michael Ellis

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 23/02/2018 answer text <p>The recent Mendoza Review: an independent review of museums in England found that over the last ten years public funding to museums and galleries in England has totalled over £8.4 billion, including £912m from the Heritage Lottery Fund. While the fall in lottery receipts will necessitate a reduction in the amount of funds distributed, the Heritage Lottery Fund will still support a broad range of heritage across the UK, including museums and galleries. Investment at a local level has been protected as far as possible to maximise the coverage, spread and number of grants. However, because HLF funds are based on applications and does not allocate specific amounts per sector, it is not possible to estimate the level of funding provided to museums and galleries in coming years.</p> answering member constituency Northampton North answering member printed Michael Ellis question first answered 23/02/2018 11:53:05 answering member 4116 label Biography information for Sir Michael Ellis
