Vol. 458 No. 8

Written Answers. - Arts Council Reorganisation.

Eric J. Byrne

Question:

41 Mr. E. Byrne asked the Minister for Arts, Culture and the Gaeltacht the proposals, if any, he has to reorganise the Arts Council in view of the concerns expressed by a number of those working in the arts area; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [17769/95]

I have no such plans.

I welcome this opportunity to put on the record of the House the fact that I am very happy with the work carried out by An Chomhairle in the last two years.

I understand that An Chomhairle has carried out a review of its internal workings and as a result of this review it has put in train a variety of changes which have already improved its service to the public.

I believe that the vast majority of individual artists and arts organisations are satisfied with the work of An Chomhairle.
