Comment on this
Under the Arts Act 2003, the Arts Council has primary responsibility for the development of the arts in Ireland.
I have asked the Arts Council to make direct contact with the Deputy in relation to the question. Please contact my private office if you do not hear from the Council within the next ten working days.
