Early day motion tabled by primary sponsor Alison McGovern (Labour), on Tuesday, 5 April 2011, in the House of Commons. It is signed by 32 members in total.
FUNDING FOR THE ARTS
That this House is greatly concerned at the damage being done to our cultural industries by the current programme of cuts; recognises the record of success of the arts and culture in the UK, both economically and culturally; appreciates that Arts Council England was faced with some difficult decisions after its 30 per cent. funding cut; and notes that the widespread cuts, starting to be implemented by local authorities as a result of budgetary constraints, will have far-reaching consequences for the arts in the UK and will signal severe difficulties for some, and the beginning of the end for other respected and innovative arts organisations.
