Arts Policy
Dail Éireann — 2021-10-05
============================================================

John Lahart (FF), Dublin South-West

There is always a follow-up. There is no such thing as a free compliment, as the Minister will discover.
The Minister has somewhat covered this question in one of her previous answers. I am asking it on behalf of my colleague, Deputy Calleary, but it is a subject close to me and to many Deputies and especially my constituents in Dublin South-West. It concerns the basic income guarantee pilot scheme for arts and when it will commence. Will the Minister make a statement on that?
