We do not get free money for culture in this country. We have not had the investment we have needed over the past decade and a half. This is an opportunity at no cost to the Treasury for us to begin to unlock more resources so that we can drive further inspiring and brilliant work from our cultural community and ensure that communities that are harder pressed and have lost money through cuts to cultural budgets over that period are restored in some way, and so that we can make more progress in driving growth in the cultural industries.
