§ 44. Mr. Wallerasked the Minister for the Arts what plans he has to increase awareness of the payroll giving scheme among arts organisations.
§ Mr. LuceMy Office has published a guide to the scheme for arts bodies, "Payroll giving: making it work for the arts", explaining how it operates and what arts bodies can do to encourage payroll gifts. The Arts Council has its own publicity in preparation and intends to hold a seminar for arts institutions which will include payroll giving. The Charities Advisory Trust is also holding a seminar aimed at museums. I shall be taking a keen interest in the scheme's progress.
