Basement Films: Finance
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, whether her Department has approved a funding application for Basement Films Company in the last 12 months.
Answered by Chris Bryant
No. DCMS does not directly approve individual funding applications for film and television content. Our partners, including the British Film Institute (BFI), are responsible for implementing specific funding programmes. The BFI has advised they have no record of funding being awarded to this production company.
