Tell the Culture, Media and Sport Committee what you thinkThe Culture, Media and Sport Committee has launched a new inquiry into The Funding of the Arts and Heritage. The Committee is inviting written submissions on a whole range of issues, including the impact spending cuts from central and local Government will have on the arts and heritage at a national and local level; whether the policy guidelines for National Lottery funding need to be reviewed and the impact the abolition of the Museums, Libraries and Archives Council will have. It is essential that as many individuals and institutions as possible respond to this invitation. The closing date for submissions was 2nd September. The Federation has made a submission.
