I thank the Minister for her informative reply. I ask the degree to which philanthropists can be encouraged to assist in the very wide programme at both local and national level. I also ask the degree to which young people, through the schools perhaps, can be encouraged to take an interest in the arts with a view to participation in the future, to becoming directly involved or to achieving employment in that area.
