Minutes:

The Committee considered an update on the petition and agree to close the petition on the basis that there is little further that it could do at this time, in light of the financial support that has been made available to support live music venues and the ongoing oversight of the COVID-19 music stakeholder group in this area.

2 P-05-1006 Release the £59 million to the arts to prevent local grassroots music venues from closure

Supporting documents:

Minutes:

The Committee considered the petition for the first time and agreed to write back to the Deputy Minister for Culture, Sport and Tourism to ask:

 

  • why the full £59 million consequential funding has not been utilised for the Cultural Recovery Fund; and
  • how the Government intends to use the resources at its disposal to ensure that buildings used as music venues are protected during the pandemic and not lost to redevelopment or other purposes.

 

The Committee indicated an intention to close the petition once this information has been received.
