The high-end television and animation sectors have introduced voluntary levies to support investment and training through the Skills Investment Fund which is being administered by Creative Skillset, the sector Skills Council for the Creative Industries. These arrangements were established in response to the introduction of new tax reliefs for the creative content sectors introduced in April 2013.
