Cabinet Office: Cultural Heritage
The question
To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, whether he plans to decolonise the (a) artwork and (b) heritage assets in (i) his Department and (ii) each of it's Arm's Length Bodies; and what the policy of the Government Property Agency is on this.
Answered by Georgia Gould
There has been no change in the Cabinet Office’s management of artwork or heritage assets since the previous administration.
As separate entities, the responsibility for creating policy and guidance for artwork sits with each individual Arm’s Length Body, rather than with the Department.
The Government Property Agency does not have a national policy on this topic and will follow any policy and/or guidance provided by relevant client departments.
