Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport written question – answered at on 26 June 2020.
To ask the Secretary of State for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport, what steps she is taking to protect and promote monuments in the United Kingdom.
Responsibility for public statues and memorials rests with their owners, with those deemed to be of special architectural or historic interest potentially subject to statutory protection as, or as part of, Listed Buildings. The National Heritage List for England highlights the significance of historically important listed statues and memorials, and is a resource for educating people about all aspects of our complex past, good and bad. In England, Historic England is looking to proactively support such conversations with guidance, research and advice to owners, local authorities and communities.
