Ateb
Atebwyd gan Deputy Minister for Arts, Sport and Tourism
Like all our culture arm’s length bodies, Amgueddfa Cymru is exploring all available income-generating opportunities. This includes exploring a range of potential future charging options, such as charging for entry to some or all its museums.
This exploratory work is at an early stage. As such, the only discussion I have had with stakeholders is a very initial conversation with Amgueddfa Cymru’s chair and chief executive during my most recent biannual meeting when their intention to consider a variety of potential options was discussed.
Any significant change to Amgueddfa Cymru’s charging policy would be a decision for its Board of Trustees in the first instance and would have to be considered by the Welsh Ministers alongside our policy for access to the national collection.
I will update the Senedd if any proposal to change Amgueddfa Cymru’s charging policy emerges.
