My Department has not assessed the affordability of seats for performances by the Royal Ballet and Royal Opera.The cost of seats is a matter for individual arts organisations to decide.Arts Council England has also not assessed the affordability of seats for performances at either the Royal Ballet or the Royal Opera House. Arts Council England has recently produced guidance for arts organisations on how to maximise revenue while minimising the risk of price becoming a barrier that prevents people from attending or participating.I am arranging for copies of 'Call it a tenner. The role of pricing in the arts' to be placed in the House Libraries.

The Arts Council does not direct the ROH management as to how they should allocate their funding across the Royal Ballet and the Royal Opera, as well as the additional strands of work the ROH undertakes. Therefore, a specific figure for the Royal Ballet Company's funding for their touring is not available.

The Royal Ballet does not receive funding from central Government. DCMS sponsors Arts Council England to promote and invest in the arts, including dance.The Royal Ballet is part of the Royal Opera House (ROH) and therefore receives funding through the Arts Council's subsidy to the ROH which is as follows:
