Arts Bill 2002: Second Stage.

 

I hope that the Minister has a contribution to make to the arts. It is unfortunate that the arts is part of a wider area of responsibility, including sport and tourism, although perhaps they complement each other. The Minister must focus on this area. The responsibility is on the Minister to move forward. If we do not give adequate resources to the Irish Film Board, we will be in serious trouble. The Minister's predecessor had the imagination and the support to bring something important to this country. The Minister must examine his responsibility to the Irish Film Board.
