A plan outlining how government intends to support growth in the creative industries will be published early next year, a DCMS Minister has said.
Speaking in parliament, Arts Minister Lord Parkinson confirmed the Creative Industries Sector Vision, which had been due to be published in the summer, will be unveiled imminently.
He said the plan will set out government's ambitions for the sector for the period up to 2030, with the aim of driving growth and employment and increasing the positive impact the creative industries play in people's lives.
"I recognise that the delays in publication have been frustrating, but we will publish it early in the new year," he said.
Parkinson said that at the heart of the sector vision is £50m of investment from DCMS to drive growth across the country through the Create Growth programme, the UK Games Fund and the UK Global Screen Fund.
