Culture Media and Sport written question – answered at on 5 December 2011.
To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Olympics, Media and Sport what steps his Department is taking to increase the number of National Lottery grant applications in deprived areas.
The Lottery distributing bodies—rightly—make their funding decisions independently of Government. I understand they are working actively to encourage applications from deprived areas and ‘cold spots' that have received little Lottery funding.
