National Lottery funding for BFI requires thorough review to reflect expanded role.
Conclusion
The amount of National Lottery funding available to the BFI must reflect its role and remit, which has changed considerably since the allocations were last set. Determining where an increase for the BFI might come from, however, requires a thorough review across the different sectors and distributing bodies. Such a review is long overdue, and should not be delayed by the protracted uncertainty around the level of returns for good causes under Allwyn. (Conclusion, Paragraph 222)
