Proceeding contribution from Baroness O'Cathain (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 17 June 2010. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Public Expenditure: Review of Commitments.
Public Expenditure: Review of Commitments
Can my noble friend confirm that the Department for Culture, Media and Sport has stated that, if it could get private funding for this, the project would go ahead? This is yet another important area. There is a lot of money sloshing around in the arts world, but it is directed to projects that are not as important as a good visitor centre at Stonehenge. By implication, I am sure that many people thought today that we were going to let Stonehenge crumble way. The stones are wonderful, but we are concerned about access and the visitor centre. It seems an awful lot of money to spend on a visitor centre.
