Mr. Faulds

asked the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster if he will make a separate grant-in-aid to the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden, in view of its present financial situation.

Mr. St. John-Stevas

I think it is right to retain the present arrangement whereby financial support for the Royal Opera House is provided by the Arts Council from its grant-in-aid.
