Helen Goodman – 2014 Parliamentary Question to the Department for Culture Media and Sport

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Helen Goodman on 2014-06-16.

To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, which Arts Council England strategic programmes are designed specifically to address the National Lottery directions issued in 2007.

Lottery Distributors, including Arts Council England, are required to take account of directions issued under Section 26 (1) of the National Lottery etc. Act 1993. It is for the Arts Council to determine how best to do so in designing its strategic programmes.
