The Secretary of State identified the two key achievements of the last 10 years as free admission to national museums, noting in particular the resulting increase in the number of child visits, and the investment in regional museums made through Renaissance in the Regions. Making reference to the McMaster report, he spoke about the change in emphasis from access to excellence; that promoting access can result in an over-reliance on targets which should be avoided; and that the key to excellence for museums is the quality of the visitor experience they offer. He also stressed the importance of ensuring excellent museum provision outside London. The Secretary of State identified the key priorities for museums in the next ten years as: strong partnerships, national, regional and international, with reference to the British Museum’s World Collections project; museum education, referring to the Find Your Talent scheme to give every child 5 hours a week of cultural activity; and diversity, particularly in museum leadership, ensuring museums reflect the whole of their local communities.

Estimate Memorandum Department for Digital, Culture
OFFICIAL Estimate Memorandum Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport 2017-18 Supplementary Estimate Overall Summary The Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) helps make Britain the world’s most creative, digital and engaged nation; an exciting place to live, visit and do business. We support strong and resilient communities, providing opportunities for everyone. Wherever you live and whatever your background, we want your life to be enriched by what we (and the sectors we support) do. DCMS is a department with substantial responsibilities. Our sectors make up more than 14% of the UK economy and our efforts enrich the lives of people across the country through their involvement in social action, digital, culture, the arts and sport. From its earliest origins in the Department of National Heritage with responsibilities for heritage, arts and culture, DCMS has grown to the department it is today. A department that focuses not just on the heritage that makes our united nation great, but also on the UK’s future as a digital, global Britain with innovation, technology and creativity at its economic heart. Our efforts to build a stronger, fairer society are at the heart of everything we do, and teams in the Office for Civil Society, together with many others, help make this ambition a reality. This Supplementary Estimate seeks the resources and cash to continue to make this possible, and to give our industries the framework to grow and make a real impact on people's lives. This memorandum provides the Select Committee with an explanation of how the amended resource and cash allocations sought in the Supplementary Estimate will be applied and how they compare with plans and outturn control totals.
