HC Deb 28 March 1988 vol 130 c349W
63. Mr. Harry Greenway

To ask the Minister for the Arts what encouragement he is giving to the development of marketing skills by arts organisations.

Mr. Luce

I continue to be very interested in ways in which arts organisations can be encouraged to market themselves more effectively. As I told the House on 25 February at column 307, I am supporting two new initiatives in 1988–89 which will help arts bodies to become more skilful at marketing: a distance learning package and a programme of training courses for top management.
