To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, what steps he is taking to ensure that national galleries and museums remain free at the point of use.

Asked by:
Anna Turley (Labour)

Answer

Free access to all national museums and galleries was a commitment made in the 2015 Conservative Party Manifesto and remains government policy.

Management agreements between DCMS and all national museums and galleries highlight as a priority that “free entry to the permanent collections of the national museums will continue to be available and public access will be protected.”
