Cuts Watch #80: UK film industry takes half of DCMS cuts
The future of the major British Film Institute project on London’s Southbank is threatened by the withdrawal of £45 million of government funding, as Richard wrote yesterday. As architect’s journal BD reports, the international competition for the design of the centre was launched earlier this year, and a great deal of work has already been done on the project.
The BFI has issued a statement highlighting their concerns that more than half of the DCMS cuts are to come from the film industry.
