View answerThe Arts Council is the statutory body charged with supporting and developing the arts in Ireland and is independent in its funding decisions under Section 24(2) of the Arts Act 2003. In such circumstances neither I as Minister, nor my officials can intervene in the Council's funding decisions .
The Arts Council has appeals procedures that can be found at www.artscouncil.ie/Funding/Appeals-process/.
