VisitBritain: Finance

The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, if she will make an assessment of the potential merits of increasing the funding her Department provides Visit Britain.

Answered by Chris Bryant

Funding allocations for VisitBritain are reviewed as part of the comprehensive spending review process, which in turn depends on the recent Budget. I note the Honorable Member’s bid for additional funding - and his opposition to the Budget. It is difficult to see how one can will the ends but not the means.
