Mr. Robert Cooke

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science whether he will make available financial grants to enable ballet companies to tour the provinces.

Miss Jennie Lee

The allocation of grants is a matter for the Arts Council but I can tell the hon. Member that in the current year over £200,000 is being made available to enable ballet companies to tour the provinces.
