The Government recognises the important cultural, scientific and heritage contributions of the Learned Societies of New Burlington House and has been working to identify solutions that will enable them to remain in situ.
Burlington House is owned by the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government (MHCLG). Officials from DCMS and MHCLG have been working closely together on this matter. MHCLG has written to the Learned Societies and invited the Learned Societies to find a viable solution that will enable them to deliver public value and remain in situ at New Burlington House. The Department is not yet in a position to state when discussions with the Learned Societies will conclude.
