23. Mr. Jessel

asked the Under-Secretary of State answering in respect of the arts when Her Majesty's Government intend to begin consultations about the future funding of the National Theatre, the Royal Festival Hall, symphony orchestras and other major London-based arts institutions in the event of the abolition of the Greater London council.

Mr. Waldegrave

Formal consultations on the Government's proposals for the reallocation of the functions of the Greater London council in this and other fields will begin as soon as possible after publication of a White Paper in the autumn.
