To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport if he will publish the management and administration expenses of(a) Northern Arts and (b) North West Arts in each of the last three years. [132654]

I have asked the Arts Council of England, which has responsibility for the English regional arts boards, to provide this information. When it is available, I will write to the hon. Member, and place a copy in the Library of the House.
