The past three and halt years have seal the must prolOun d
changcs since the Arts Council was formed . Fife' years oil ,
we are a Vrrv ditlcr•cnt boxy from the one conceived in 194 6
We al-C .1 Council for England alone - the first stage in a
devolution which seems both inexorable and right . Culture
is at once local, national and international . As my tavourit o
(and continually-quoted) Auden hraiku has it :
A poet's wish :
'lo be like sorrec v a1hy cheese ,
The balance is changing : already spending per head o m
Lotterv projects has rcachcd .C21 . 9 in the Norther n
Rcgion Compared to L:24-15 in London . And in any cas e
tilt Criticisms take IIISLi'iCitnt account of ncc fact that mos t
of Fn g land 's largest cultural ittstirutions i illclttdin g
Parliament itself) find therll%ClyC% Ill till national capital -- o r
that, outside this Context of LorldUn the international cin',
I-ondon the region is still somcwhar recessed and in Lotter y
terms underprovided . The broadcastcr and journalis t
Trevor Phillips, a new and very welcome Chairman of th e
London ILA 11, is addressing this iS%LIC 1()1•cetillly.
Local but prized e1scilhen. .
The 10 Regional Arts Board ~ IL-\B i Chairmen are ful l
tllembCr% ofthC Colllalil in dlcir own right . They are, lik e
other members, appointed by the Secretary of State - bu t
in tlrcirCase, urtigLIcly, there is formal consultation at loca l
level . With devolUtiO11 now tirml l ' on the political agenda ,
ll'C Shc)uld CxptCt to sec a process of orderly chang e
CurltinuC, and I welcome it .
Then there is the transformation ()four cultural landscap e
by the National Lottery. With shining exception s
(Manchester's Bridgewater Hall is one example, th e
City of I;irmingh,tnt's SVntph()nV Hall anr)rhrr), new an d
dcdicarcd arts facilities have later thin on the ~troLlnd i n
recent decades, given public cxpcneliturc pressures on th e
grants we distribute .
WhOVVer would havC thought that the Arts Council woul d
in the I990s ht a major economic tierce in the regeneratio n
of cities' ()r rhar jobs related to file arts should bt growingy
so rapidly - and they grew, let it be said, during th e
reccsston now behind Lrs . Areas IIkc Gateshead, Salford ,
Srokc-on Trent and Sheffield arc seeing growth an d
o_lcyClohmCnt as a result of the -C80 Fm we have alread y
allo rcatcd to more than 1,500 capital projects .
There have bcerr criticisms chat awards arc weighte d
too hcavily in favour of London . Ironically it is tilt
national press, located exclusively in London, that is more
vociferous in its criticism of imbalances than the rcgion .l !
press, which has given over 90`,+n approval ratings t o
our awards .
We very much welcome Chris Smith as the new Secretan •
of St ati tore ( :ulrllrC, MCdi t and -Sport (prCViously Nationa l
HeritagC ) . Quite apart from his political career, ht is a
figure of auth()ritV and Conlnlitilacrat in Miitr field . At an earl y
meCring with him i suggested that, within a yen- tcw \•ear s
of the millennium, 87% of our population wi11 be withi n
travel-to-work, travel-to-play reach ()fall kinds of art s
facilities : great and small, nrwh• built, retilr•bished o r
re-equipped . I said I believed i would be able to send hi m
a map of our Lottery :allocations confirming such a
distribution by nest spring . The speed at which allocation s
are drawn drown nl av, however, be affected by the sixt h
Good C :auw rectni1v outlined ill the C,overnment' s
Whitt Paper, The l leoplc• '.s Lottciy .
We ,wc1come malt as}xcts of the White Paper . It is righ t
that the Lurtrr' should t-w an organism not a nlonunlcnt .
1 agree tvltll Sir David Purtnam who, in his pithy fore )r I
to this report, worries atxmt tilt quality ol- arrs educario n
and the sense that our International{, successful art s
industr-' ntaV br coastira" oil the products of a system n o
longer in place .
Inc, too, have 1- cn addressing= these concerns . ]lie capita l
programme, have to he accessible to all : richer and }xx)rcr,
older an .] younger . We are volt a body obsessed with Its I AV n
'rLU-f' at the expense of the irltcrcsts it sCr'cs . On the face of
it, much ot' what is pre)post.{ tor the National Endowmen t
ti)r Science s 1'echnoiotn' and the Arrs {NFSTAI is IIliar
with Our own work . Whether we do it, tile\- do it, or we
both do it in tandem is a lot less important than gettin g
the work done- In my view, the Arts Council and NESTA
should work alongside each other to achieve th e
Governments objectives for young people .

Underpinning rhis oprinlism and energy is the scrisc tha t
a lon -fought battle to re-position the arts from th e
margins to the centre of public policy is at last bearing fruit .
In the contexr of the national economy ; they- are I)OW ywidel y
acknowled g ed as engines ofywcalth, cltlployment and civi c
pride .
All this good news is as undeniable as it is welconic . But ,
Of course, it is oilly part ( )t a much nurrc complex prctLlre .
Those Lotter• mullions have the poterlrial to de-stabilis e
established patterns Of art ,, itlrldin , and, as we are alread y
beginning ro realise, they may generate long-term revenu e
headaches for arts org :ulisations and local authorities u p
and down rile A )LIntrV
The arts have been effectively scjueezed to the fringCS ut '
the national curriculum at both primary and secondar y
level . The infrastrLlcturc of stippOrt for quality music an d
drarlla tcachill, has been all bur wiped out in some part s
of the country ; and desperately needs to lx re-thought and
rc-built . In :1 number of areas, trainim`, is in something o f
a mess, with Inadequate and often blatantly contradict( r -y
funding and assessment policies ()bstructing takrltCLi youn I
artists, performers, technicians and administrators 6 , 0111
aulliirirlg the skills they need .
We remain terrifyingly complacent about the quality O f
the pr(rfesional arts in Britain . Unless GOVC1'1111lent, pl'ivatc
sponsors and arts Orgailisations themselves tackle this issu e
With real determination, we will slide inexorably towards I
situation in which income rather than ability become . th e
deciding factor for anyone choosing a career in The arts .
Last but not lease, there remains :I huge Imbalance in acces s
to the arts ti)r ditYcrent cc)Innuu)itics in different parts of th e
CuLlllt'n : An Informed and nationally inclusive audience Car l
be the only sure foundation for the vitality- of the sector a s
a whole . The most essential of thOse audiences is, of COUNC ,
the school-children oftoday ; who - given opporrunin, and
enthusiasm - will become that engaged and critica l
audience of tomorrow, to the immense Lwnrfit of the arts ,
%0cien- and themselves .
These arc vital strategic issues that urgently need to b e
addressed- It is final]\' becoming accepted that the art s
are .11-YME nltldl nlO1'c than jobs, prizes or national prestige .
7 hey go r(-) the heart of what a civilised society is, or hope s
to be . I-}ley 111LISt Ch .lllrntit and inspire as well is please an d
entertain . Must of all, if they arc to he a viral fierce in th e
lite Of ncC Ilatiollai COMM Itrlity; they must engage the yyhol c
of that community - the children as much as the old people ,
the minority interests as rln1c11 as the mainstream, th e
lllnu y atn'e as well as the Ctr11%clwarivc .
As Sir Cameron Mackintosh pointed cant in hi s
introduction to last r'ear ' s annual report, the success of
SO IllUch Of the arts in Britain has depended on a dynami c
balance berwcert what the commercial marker can delive r
and what can onl y be delivered by public subsid y : tllc
taking of risk~, the nurturing of new t,llcnts and th e
W11111irl 1,TI Of new audiences . These are all clcnlenrs ()fa ric h
arts enyironllleilt Which the market, left rO itself, is unlikel y
to deliver.
It is in these areas that the Arts Council has a responsibilit y
In the 111.11 -tUrillty Of a SLICiOStill arts economy. It has to hav e
the contidence r() take risks, which is not at all the san k
thing as Courting controversy : Great art often shocks, bu r
nut all that shucks is remotely great !
The Arts Council has to have Elie imagination to reach ou t
to r1CW audietlees and, through the Lotten' and its ow n
rc.OUrccs, to deploy a judicious mittul-c of stick and carrot
which StIlIlLllates its client organisations to do the same .
Perhaps most important ()fall, the arts Council has t o
accept a strategic responsibility to identify and sustain ne w
talent, promote nc'w art form ,, and new means of access .
The hu(Tc success ofthe Lottery easih' fee,-] ,, the illusion tha t
success is related to new and improved buildings, But th e
arts are not essentially abour bulklings . They're ab(nl t
people -whether it's the talent of the Individual artist ; the
ability' ()fan administrator to manage a complex capita l
project ; or the skills of the great army of craft technician s
Which we need to ensure that the present'N)om' in theatre ,
television and film production doesn't disintegrate into
(wage-nnffarc'd 'blist, .
The Sl1CCe.SS f 7f the art,, in Britain rests oil this Infrastructure .
The arts have established flicinselyes as to() Important t(J b e
left either ru arbitrary posse subsidy or to arbitrary privat e
sp(arlsorship -important though these will always be . Th e
arts demand a new professionalism that acknowlcdgcs thei r
iillportanee in our lives, our economy and our sense o f
idetltiry : They constitute cane of our greatest nationa l
stren gths, As we approach a new millennium, we should
recognise them as .uCll, and invest In their ftlrlll'C .

Matching quantity
with quality
With the authnrln- to distribute National Lotten , revenu e
conics the legal responsibilin , for ensuring that it i s
distributed according to the rules - and in tile PUhli C
interest . After all, Lotten, revenue is public looney:
At the Arts Council, this responsibility - Nyhcre capita l
projects are concerned - falls to the Lortcn• Projects
Department . Established in May 1996 with th e
appointment of Lotter' Projects Director Nicole Mill Symons, the department was up and running by al e
auruillrl . Its task is twofold : first, it monitors t i l e Pl-()L'FCS S
of capital schemes ; then it CvaltlatCN the111 .
Monitoring forms the core of the team ' s activities . I t
involves overseeing the payment of grants against agree d
schrdulcs, and enSen•i n ,t; that recipients meet the conditirm s
of their awards . Givcii the rising volume and conlplcxin_• o f
arts-related capital projects now trndcnvay, monitoring is a
highly dcmandinL= Business . However, it is underpinned b y
clear-rut proccdtu-cs in tyhich Information technology plaV S
a key part .
The Government's criteria governing the award of Lotter_
-rants provide an invalu able point of reterence wher e
judgint, the merits of particular projects . But where the art s
are concerned, making qualitative judgenletrts can never b e
an exact science . So post-completion evaluation is hacked
by objective checks and balances . Developing these wil l
become an increasingly important part or the Lotter y
Projects Deparrmcnt' s work .
Last year, The department oversaw a number of special pilo t
studies . 'File Arts Council's Business A .sscssment an d
Planning Department carried nut nvo pilots on a selectio n
of projects ne:lring completion, to ensure that they had me t
the objectives they set out to achieve . AJlcather stud y

The Arts Council must consider the viability o f
projects and, in particular, the need for resource s
to be available to meet any running or maintenanc e
costs associated with the project for a reasonabl e
period, taking into account the size and nature of th e
project .
Financial %-iahillt\ and qu .tllrt• of management is one of th e
eight criteria applied ro all Lotter- applications . Grants «il l
not he a1% arded unless projccrs can meet this criterion ,
satisfying the .-\rts Council that thec have the fln .inclal an d
management resources to run the project and make die hes t
use of it after completion .

Projects must include a significant element o f
partnership funding and/or a contribution in kind fro m

The govcnimcnt requires all Lr,rrrn applications to in :lud c
a significant lc\-cl of support from other Sources . As well
as makim , Lottcrv monev ur r filrthcr this also helps t o
demonstrate that the local communitn and , or other t>t,eilc%
