HC Deb 07 December 1992 vol 215 c455W
22. Mr. Bennett

To ask the Secretary of State for National Heritage if he will visit libraries and theatres in Greater Manchester to discuss resources.

Mr. Key

I am always delighted to visit local authorities in connection with my ministerial responsibilities. I have already visited Manchester to see one of its theatres and Chetham's library but would welcome further invitations to libraries and theatres in Greater Manchester. My Department has no direct responsibility for the resources provided for these services, although it must ensure that a comprehensive and efficient library service is provided.
