Jack Gamble, director of the Campaign for the Arts (CFTA), said that the “significant increase” in cultural investment is “extremely welcome”.

CFTA previously launched a petition signed by 18,000 urging the Scottish government to deliver on its existing pledge to “more than double” arts funding and to deliver “at least £100 million more annually” by 2028-29.
