According to documents seen by the Evening Standard, prime minister Gordon Brown and culture secretary Andy Berman are hoping the proposals will turn the UK into the 鈥渨orld鈥檚 creative hub鈥�.
The project could finally rehouse the British Film Institute which has been lobbying for a permanent national centre on the South Bank. It currently occupies a temporary building under Waterloo Bridge.
It is thought that a mix of public and private cash could be used for the 拢200m film centre although how much the film industry would contribute is unclear.
