HC Deb 30 January 1995 vol 253 c531W
26. Mr. Corbyn

To ask the Secretary of State for National Heritage what is the planned level of spending on fringe theatre in London in 1995–96; and what is the figure for the current year.

Mr. Dorrell

This is a matter for the Arts Council and the London arts board. I understand that, in allocating money, these funding bodies do not distinguish "fringe theatre" from other forms of theatre.
