§ Mr. HanleyTo ask the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster what plans he has for future funding of the British film industry.
§ Mr. AtkinsMy Department is already committed to providing support of £2 million a year through British Screen Finance Ltd. for the five years 1986–90. I am pleased to announce that we have decided that this should continue at the same level for a further three years, until the end of 1993. I hope this clear indication of further Government support for United Kingdom film-making will help BSF to build on its achievements to date and that industry will also extend its own commitment.
