Ceist:177 Mr. Gilmore asked the Minister for Arts, Culture and the Gaeltacht the plans, if any, he has to publish a theatre policy for this country and to alter the way in which theatre is funded.
Written Answers. - Theatre Policy.
I fully appreciate the important role of theatre in the cultural life of this country. While I have no immediate plans to publish a specific policy document on theatre, I am, however, undertaking a comprehensive review of the needs and potential of all the elements that make up our cultural life, including the way in which funding is provided.
