§ 89. Mr. Illsleyasked the Minister for the Arts what information he has on the level of expenditure by public libraries on community services.
§ Mr. LuceNo statistics are currently available on the amount spent by public libraries on "community services". The publication by my office of a model costing system for public libraries, which I announced on 7 July, at column15, should enable library authorities to cost the specific services they provide.
