This week, the Home Affairs Select Committee has published a report on their inquiry into the Points Based System; the NCA is seeking your views on its draft response to the MLA’s Museum Accreditation Consultation; ACE and MLA have collaborated with Sport England to re-launch the Active People Diagnostic online tool, now including cultural participation data and the NCA is looking for images to illustrate the next edition of nca news. We would also like to let you know that there will be no Friday Briefing next week, the Briefing will return from its summer holiday on Friday 21 August.
