HC Deb 11 December 1973 vol 866 c71W
33. Mr. Faulds

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science what additional money she intends to grant to the Arts Council.

Mr. St. John-Stevas

Under the present triennial arrangements the Arts Council has had an indication of the maximum size of its grant, subject to parliamentary approval and to revaluation, for the years 1974–75 and 1975–76. I hope to be able to give the council in the New Year, and subject to the same qualification, a further indication extending, for planning purposes, to 1976–77.
