The Heritage Alliance (THA) has published its new fiscal manifesto ‘Backing the Bedrock‘ which sets out five heritage fiscal and funding priorities for 2019.
THA writes:
This document represents shared priorities across our diverse membership and details five funding and fiscal measures that will give our world-leading heritage sector a positive future:
- Champion our world-leading heritage sector on the world stage – maximising Brexit’s opportunities,
- and minimising its challenges for heritage;
- Ensure continued National Lottery funding for the heritage sector and adequate funding for Historic England;
- Promote heritage assets as part of creating vibrant places and more home;
- Reform the tax regime to promote the repair and maintenance of our nation’s irreplaceable heritage assets;
- Help the heritage sector to attract more investment and engagement and build sector skills and capacity.
