Joint Oireachtas Committee on Arts, Heritage, Regional, Rural and Gaeltacht Affairs
Why the Arts Matter: Discussion
Mr. Philip King:
Instead of being a silo Department, isolated and called the Department of arts, it would be essential to have buy-in across the Government that would be inter and intra departmental. The senior civil servants in each of the significant Departments would come together and a policy to strategically fund the arts correctly, as we have discussed over the last couple of hours, would be put together and would have weight. Being in isolation is no good-----
