The Culture, Media, and Sport Committee (CMS) has issued papers regarding its inquiry into protecting built heritage in the UK \u2013 which closed 3 February \u2013 with the evidence submitted, including correspondence, oral evidence transcripts, and written evidence, now published.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

The Committee writes of its original Inquiry plans:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The inquiry will examine issues with funding and whether current finance models are suitable and accessible.  It will also engage with how the Government can tackle practical and regulatory challenges, such as the availability of skilled practitioners, the managed decline of assets on publicly-owned land, and policy issues arising from net zero targets and planning policy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Alongside this, MPs will highlight the importance of built heritage for economic regeneration and to community identities, as well as how those communities can be empowered to manage their local built heritage assets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
