Consultation On Lottery Money From 2009

3rd February 2006

Consultation on the shares of National Lottery money for the arts and film, sport, and heritage is now being undertaken. Lots of different bodies are trying to encourage people to put their views forward from film groups, sports groups - in fact wide range from manny backgrounds who want to see a different distribution of the funds. Head over and complete form to put in your ideas.

Every year the National Lottery raises well over �1 billion to be shared among good causes. The National Lottery plays a role in most of our lives, whether as players, grant beneficiaries, users of Lottery funded facilities, or as someone who has enjoyed or benefited from something the Lottery has funded, however big or small; such as new kit for a local sports club, researching the history of a local area, new equipment for an arts group or funding a youth film project.

Public consultation on the share of National Lottery support to the arts and film, heritage and sport

We need your views to help us determine what proportion of Lottery money is allocated to the arts and film, sport and heritage after 2009, and what the policy should be on how Lottery money is spent in each of these good causes.

This consultation is about the shares for the causes of arts and film, and heritage, and sport. The Government has also decided that these causes will continue and that there will be no new good causes added apart from the time-limited cause of the London Olympic Games in 2012. The current shares for the causes of arts and film, heritage and sport are set until January 2009. The present proportion of National Lottery money going to each of the good causes in this consultation is divided in the following way. Heritage, sport, and arts and film all currently receive 16.7%. The remaining 50% which goes to the good cause of "charities, education, the environment and health" has already been decided and is not part of this consultation.

We need your views to shape the future of Lottery funding for the good causes of art and film, sport and heritage and to determine the most appropriate outcome, balancing everyone's views.

To help you to take part in the consultation in an informed way, we have compiled a consultation paper which sets out in more detail the background to the consultation; explains when and how we are consulting; the timetable for the consultation; and what will happen after the consultation. The Lottery distributing bodies for arts and film, sport and heritage have also set out information about what has been achieved through Lottery spending in their areas in the last eleven years and what this may tell us about the future. Before you answer the consultation questionnaire, you might like to take a few moments to read these supporting documents. Further information on the National Lottery is also available to inform your contribution to this consultation.
