Question 103: To ask the Minister for Arts, Sport and Tourism when he will announce the appointments to the board of the Arts Council; if his attention has been drawn to the fact that the delay may be having a damaging affect on the promotion of arts here; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

I am currently considering nominations for the vacancies on the board of the Arts Council and hope to make an announcement shortly.

The remaining members of the boards, whose terms expire in 2011, are sufficient to provide a quorum for the Council and under the Arts Act 2003 the Deputy Chair can take the place of the Chair until a new Chair is appointed.
