I hope to announce another round of Capital Arts funding shortly. At present I am considering the scope of the scheme and, therefore, the terms of reference and guidelines are not, as yet, finalised.

Question 27: To ask the Minister for Arts, Sport and Tourism if his Department will consider any request to fund a large scale high quality quantitative research in the area of arts behaviour; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [10836/08]

My Department has received no such request. However, all requests for funding are considered by my Department, as appropriate. I would refer the Deputy to the recently published statistical analysis of public involvement in the arts conducted by the National Economic and Social Forum.
