UK City of Culture changes

Early day motion 187, tabled 14 June 2021 by Gregory Campbell (DUP). Signed by 9 members.

That this House notes recent changes being introduced for future City of Culture bids; acknowledges the significant benefits that can accrue for successful Cities; recognises that previous winners such as Londonderry the first ever UK City of Culture, Hull and Coventry were all recognised as locations that raised the profile of local people, the wider area and increased a sense of pride in showcasing their districts to a much wider audience; and expresses the hope that future regions bidding for the title will be able to maximise the benefits for all their citizens.

Signatures by party: DUP 6, Conservative 2, Liberal Democrat 1.
