		These laudable but imprecise aims are reflected in the policy directions given to the Heritage Lottery Fund by the Government.[46] The Minister's statement describes the objectives of a strategy rather than the content of a strategy, but the desired content of a wider strategy goes beyond the scope of this inquiry.
		The Fund was originally conceived to receive one fifth of the National Lottery Distribution Fund.[48] Following the enactment of the National Lottery Act 1998 and the establishment of the New Opportunities Fund, the Heritage Lottery Fund's share has fallen to one sixth.
		The value of the Heritage Lottery Fund's contribution to the heritage as a whole is dependent on the continuation of support for the heritage from other public funds, most notably grant-in-aid to the many other public bodies in the sector.

	Heritage Lottery Fund Applications by Colin Johns
		The National Lottery was established in 1994 to create extra funds for five ‘good causes’: heritage, arts, sports, charities and projects to mark the year 2000 and the beginning of the new millennium.
		With the introduction of the lottery it became necessary to find a mechanism to administer the new system, and for heritage projects this task fell to the Trustees of the National Heritage Memorial Fund who are responsible for the working of the HLF and the allocation of grants.
		HLF looks for evidence that a project is supported by the local community and that it relates to local, regional or national plans or heritage policies.

	House of Commons - Culture, Media and Sport - Fourth Special Report
		In the heritage field there is a clear need for close cooperation between the Heritage Lottery Fund and other key bodies—such as English Heritage and the Countryside Agency—to ensure the effective delivery of policies.
		Both the Government and the Heritage Lottery Fund must nonetheless retain the ability to respond flexibly to new circumstances and to introduce change where this is in the public interest.
		HLF is researching a proposal to consider how best to deploy funding in a special scheme to support heritage assets in coalfield areas throughout the UK, in partnership with other lottery distributors, with a specific focus on addressing social and economic deprivation.

		Many of the special collections that contribute to our nation’s heritage are not held in major institutions with extensive resources of expertise to manage and conserve special collections, but are held by individuals, or small voluntary societies such as Parish Councils or private and learned societies.
		Unlike the university sector (where top-sliced funding from the Higher Education Funding Councils has been made available for major research collections) there are no national schemes for the upkeep of such collections, and therefore the Heritage Lottery Fund assumes a greater importance to them.
		The Heritage Lottery Fund will need to be assured that the organisation concerned has the necessary expertise to manage the collection effectively.
