Recommendation 21
21
Government lacks understanding of future studio space needs and business rates impact.
Conclusion
It is concerning that the Government does not know how much additional studio space the UK will need to support both inward investment and domestic production in the years ahead. Recent business rates revaluations also risked devastating inward investment in studios across England and Wales. That must not happen again. The 40% relief for film studios is welcome, but temporary. (Conclusion, Paragraph 80)
