As you may be aware, in October 2020, the Government introduced the Production Restart Scheme (PRS) in order to help cover any additional financial losses that the UK’s film and TV producers incurred from COVID-19-induced filming stoppages or cancellations.

Whilst the PRS was closed to new registrations in June 2022, the Government is very keen to better understand the impact that the scheme had on the creation of original British film and TV content during the pandemic and British production companies’ long-term business sustainability.

The British Film Institute (BFI) on behalf of Government has commissioned Nordicity and Saffery Champness to prepare an Impact Evaluation of the PRS. Although the PRS is no longer in operation, the evaluation will include recommendations for future similar schemes.

As part of this impact evaluation, we kindly ask you complete this online survey. It should only take 15-20 minutes to complete.
It is crucial to the success of this work that we have as much information as possible, so please take the time to complete the survey and help us accurately measure the impact of the PRS. The survey information is completely confidential and will appear in aggregate form only in the final report. The data that you submit as part of this survey will only be held by Nordicity and Saffery Champness in accordance with the data privacy statement (see next page).

Please kindly submit your completed survey response before 10th January 2023.
If you have any questions about the online survey, please contact Dustin Chodorowicz at Nordicity (dchodorowicz@nordicity.com; 0203 950 1273).

Thank you for your participation!
