Answer: Mr. Flook: To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport whether the Reform and Modernisation Funding Budget for (a) 2005-06 and (b) future years within the National Museum and Galleries division of her Department has been (i) partially and (ii) fully diverted elsewhere. [202063] Estelle Morris: The Reform and Modernisation budget is a small fund of £10 million held centrally by DCMS. It is not held by the Museums and Galleries Division and it is available to all the Department's funded bodies, although funds have been allocated to Museums and Galleries from this source in 2004-05. The allocation of funds for 2005-06 has yet to be determined. No decision has yet been taken about the size of the fund in future years.
