HC Deb 22 November 1982 vol 32 c338W
Mr. Sandelson

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science if he will take steps to ensure the financial solvency of the Royal Opera House and the continued viability of the arrangements for its performances in 1983.

Mr. Channon

I am sure that the grant for the Arts Council in 1983–84 will be sufficient to enable it to support satisfactory programmes at the Royal Opera House during the year.
