David has welcomed a world leading package of financial support for culture and the arts announced yesterday by the Chancellor.
£1.57 billion for our arts, culture and heritage through grants, loans and emergency funds, including £97 million to the Scottish administration through Barnett. The biggest ever one off investment in UK culture – to help the UK arts industry weather the storm of Covid-19.
Commenting, David said,
Great news for cultural, arts and heritage institutions across the whole 🇬🇧 - includes £97 million for 🏴.
