Proceeding contribution from Jesse Norman (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 4 February 2014. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Regional Arts and Culture.
Regional Arts and Culture
I am grateful to the hon. Gentleman for this debate. I declare an interest as a director of the Hay
festival. Does he agree that there is a difference between regional urban centres such as Sheffield, which have a distinct set of issues relating to the arts, and rural areas such as mine, where there is a need for an infrastructure to be maintained which would not exist without public support? I am thinking of Flicks in the Sticks in Herefordshire and the Monnow Valley arts centre—places that are very rural and do not have the advantages of an urban context.
