Amendment 2 will enable mayors to appoint a commissioner for culture, should they so wish, or convene local partners and collaborate with neighbouring mayors on culture matters. Government Amendment 128 inserts a new subheading, “culture”, into Part 2. Clause 41, on encouragement of visitors and promotion of visitors, will be moved from the economic development and regeneration subheading to the new culture subheading. Although this amendment refines the Bill’s structure, promoting an area to visitors remains an effective way in which to boost economic development and regeneration.
