HC Deb 11 May 1987 vol 116 c99W
59. Mr. Freud

asked the Minister for the Arts if he will make a statement on the future of Kent Opera.

Mr. Luce

I refer the hon. Member to the statement by the Arts Council following its meeting on 29 April, which indicated that a decision on the future of Kent Opera had been deferred to give an opportunity for increased local and business support to be obtained.
