Mrs. Renée Short
asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science if he will now answer Questions relating to the grants made by the Arts Council to individual organisations or for particular matters.
Mr. Hugh Jenkins
No. It is for the Arts Council, under the terms of its Charter, to decide these matters. My responsibility is for general issues of arts policy, including the size of the grant in aid to the council.
