I am impressed by the Minister's reply, for which I thank him. I am reassured by what he said and sure we will have an opportunity to return to this matter again. In the light of what has happened in Limerick, has the Minister had any engagement with the Arts Council or is it surveying arts centres across the country to ensure other centres will not find themselves in the same situation as the centre in Limerick? Furthermore, is he aware if the Arts Council provides any financial or management training for the boards of arts centres? It is essential that boards have the necessary skills to ensure the centres are made as financially viable as possible.
