Museums and Galleries: Copyright
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport, what estimate her Department has made of the total net income received by national museums sponsored by her Department as a result of charging for photographic reproductions of out of copyright artworks in the last financial year for which figures are available.
- Answer
-
Decisions about image reproduction, reproduction fees, and related copyright, are operational matters for the national museums as arm’s length bodies of government. As such, we do not hold data on the amount of income raised by image fees.
Details of the process for requesting permission to reproduce images can be found on the respective websites of the national museums.
