Proceeding contribution from Ian Gibson (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 20 March 2008. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Creative Industries.
Creative Industries
That is another issue, of course. The ALCS owes the Prime Minister £60 for a book that he produced, and we are hoping to be able to present him with a cheque at an event here in the House of Commons in a few months' time. The hon. Gentleman has a point, but that comes from diminishing the amount of money that writers get from library loans and so on. Maybe we can persuade the Prime Minister that it would have been £160 if the Government had not reduced the amount of money that writers get from book borrowing from libraries.
