Angela Smith

To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport if he will list those organisations that have received Grants from English Heritage together with the amounts or the purpose of the Grants, in the last five years. [113172]

Mr. Alan Howarth

A consolidated list of Grants by category offered by English Heritage over the last five years is in the table, including a budget figure for the financial year 1999–2000. A full list of repair grants offered by English Heritage to buildings and monuments of outstanding national importance is published annually by English Heritage, and is available on request.

Mr. Fearn

To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport what discussions his Department has had with the British Film Institute on the provision of a new permanent location for the Museum of the Moving Image. [113442]

Janet Anderson

The decision to seek a new permanent location for the Museum was taken by the Board of the BFI, and my Department has been kept closely in touch. The BFI proposes that the Museum will be housed at a bigger and better location within the newly developed South Bank. In the meantime, the BFI is planning a UK wide touring exhibition which will greatly increase access to the collection.
