QuestionView source ↗

In Assembly Estimates committee B, Wednesday 2 June 2010 (page E327) it was stated that for major performing arts companies funding is still in the budget with indexation according to the business cases that have been agreed to, along with any triennially funded organisations, meaning that these organisations have still got their funding. In relation this, I ask:
(a) can the Minister please table all the agreed business cases; and
(b) would the Minister list the funding amounts, including indexation and duration, for each company for:
(i) 2009–2010;
(ii) 2010–2011; and
(iii) future years agreed?
