King Charles III: Artworks
- Question
-
To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of any reasons for the 2.8 per cent take-up of His Majesty The King’s Portrait Scheme by hospitals.
- Answer
-
His Majesty The King’s free Portrait Scheme was a voluntary programme offering a free, framed portrait of The King to any eligible public institution that requested one.
The Cabinet Office did not require public bodies and institutions to ‘opt out’ of the scheme, and therefore the reasons for not applying for His Majesty's Official Portrait were not requested and so are not recorded.
Following the conclusion of the scheme, a breakdown of the take up, including percentage take-up figures was published on gov.uk.
