Arts Policy
Dail Éireann — 2024-09-19
============================================================

Aengus Ó Snodaigh (SF), Dublin South-Central

This question relates to the need to recognise comedy, musical theatre, fashion design and storytelling as art forms and to direct the Arts Council to do that so that those who are artists involved in those art forms can apply for and be granted grants and encouragement that they have not got.
I believe this is the Minister's right under section 5(3) of the Arts Act 2003.
