Speeches by Rutland.

“Good morning. I want to ask about funding. Emily, how much do churches contribute financially to the repair of their own buildings?”

“Thank you. I can see the quote about needing a home before it can be hospitable making it into the report. Finally, and briefly, how can the way that churches funding is applied for and distributed be changed to make it more effective?”

“Good morning. I want to ask about funding. Emily, how much do churches contribute financially to the repair of their own buildings?”

“How has the change to a more competitive system of heritage funding impacted churches?”

“You said that the response was more positive than you expected. What was the criticism that industry should have made of the plan that it did not?”

“Who was the artist?”

“It sounds as if investment in place in regions is most critical in your mind. Is that also the most difficult? Which is the most difficult? Is it that; is it the curriculum review, which is somewhat out of DCMS’s hands; is it maintaining our public service media in a rapidly changing media landscape, particularly the B…”

“Sir Chris, you said earlier, “Where I possibly can, I like to agree with you”, but the Government only fully accepted two of our 35 recommendations on British film and high-end TV; they rejected almost half and deferred or delayed the rest. Did we get it wrong, or does DCMS not have the funds or clout that is needed to…”

“What would be the tax relief that you would put forward to the Treasury as your top request?”

“Caroline, I have a quick question on the response from industry to the plan from the sector. In the music, performing and visual arts frontier industry, the performing and visual arts organisations specifically noted that there was a lack of focus on them relative to music. The Society of London Theatre in particular a…”

“I refer to my entry on the register of interests. Sir Peter, which intervention in the plan do you think will be most critical in achieving what you set out to achieve?”

“Can we look at another of our rejected proposals—the freelance commissioner, which we have touched on briefly—and the possible appointment of a champion instead? How will that operate? Caroline Norbury, the chief exec of Creative UK, was before the Committee just now, and she said that she thought the champion’s job mi…”

“I ask the questions. Moving on to intellectual property, I think the Committee felt that the response offers little detail about what the Government are doing to grow our fragile film and high-end TV domestic sector and protect the intellectual property there, in lieu of the proposals that we put in. Would you agree th…”

“That is really welcome, and so is the inward investment. Some of the British production companies to which we have spoken feel that they have to give up too much of their intellectual property to satisfy the streamers. Is that something that you have recognised?”

“Is the champion going to be a full-time paid role or a freelance role alongside another job? How do you envisage it being resourced?”
