To ask the Secretary of State for Wales if he will give details of the most recent allocation of grant in aid to the Cardiff Bay development corporation to cover the administrative running costs of the Cardiff Bay Opera House trust; if he will specify how it relates to previous estimates of the trust's running costs for 1995–96 and previous allocations of grant in aid; and if he will make a statement. [37494]
There is no grant-in-aid allocation given to the Cardiff Bay development corporation specifically to cover the administrative running costs of the Cardiff Bay Opera House trust. The question of specific payments to the trust is an operational matter for the corporation and I have therefore asked the chief executive to give those details.
