§ Mr. DafisTo ask the Deputy Prime Minister if he will meet representatives of(a) church, (b) charity and (c) other non-commercial organisations to discuss their contributions to the millennium exhibition. [32777]
The Deputy Prime MinisterThe millennium exhibition is a matter for the Millennium Commission, of which I am a member. I understand that meetings between members and staff of the commission with representatives from the church and groups representing other faiths have been taking place and the chairman has met the Archbishop of Canterbury to discuss the Christian element of the millennium celebrations. Representatives of charities and other non-commercial organisations should contact the Millennium Commission direct, should they wish to discuss the potential for involvement in the millennium exhibition.
