<p>We are clear that the right balance of funding between London and the regions continues
to require attention as part of our commitment to build a country that works for everyone.
Everyone should be able to access great arts and culture and Arts Council England
recently confirmed that the proportion of the national portfolio budget provided to
cultural organisations outside London will increase from 2018.</p><p> </p><p>The table
below shows total funding by Arts Council England since 2006/07. Spending fluctuates
from year to year because of large-scale capital investments; but 2014/15 and 2015/16
saw a larger proportion of spend outside of London than in each of the last eight
years.</p><p> </p><p>Arts Council England investment by region 2006- 2016 (full financial
