A costed, realistic and<br />
funded action plan<br />
The strategy outlined in this <strong>report</strong> will be implemented<br />
over five years from 31 March 2004, although it must be<br />
stressed that this plan has an open-ended time frame. It will<br />
be implemented by Skillset in partnership with the industry<br />
and the UK <strong>Film</strong> Council which will subsidise the bulk of the<br />
industry’s contribution using Lottery money.<br />
A key structural development will be the establishment of a<br />
new fund, the <strong>Film</strong> Skills Fund, which will be comprised of a<br />
combination of industry and public investment, including:<br />
contributions made through the pre-existing Skills Investment<br />
Fund levy on film production; contributions from the industry<br />
for specific initiatives; Lottery funding from the UK <strong>Film</strong><br />
Council; investment by the National and Regional Screen<br />
Agencies and match funding from other public sources for<br />
specific projects. Specifically, European publicly funded<br />
training programmes will be encouraged to match fund the<br />
strategy. It is anticipated that this combined investment will<br />
total around £10m per annum.
