Public financial flows in the Culture and Recreational Services Sector - The Region of Piemonte Public financial flows in the Culture and Recreational Services Sector - The Region of Piemonte The Regional RPA Monographs project entitled: Italy according to the Regional Public Accounts Public financial flows in the Italian regions presents the analysis of the financial expenditure and revenue flows for the entire Public Sector for each region at two-year intervals, using the data contained in the Regional Public Accounts (RPA) database. The 2013 edition is the fourth after the launch of the project and provides an in-depth analysis of Cultural and Recreational Services, a strategic sector for the development of the regions, which deserves considerable attention on the part of policy makers. The process of information reconstruction, with reference to the period 2000-2011, is based on the detection of expenditure values, from RPA sources, through the involvement of the different entities on the regional territory, belonging both to the General Government and to National or Local Public Enterprises. The statistical data of the Regional Public Accounts were integrated with sectorial information from Istat and MIBACT sources, referring to physical and context data, which make it possible to reconstruct a broader perspective on the supply and demand for cultural goods and services. For the first time, in this edition, individual study sheets were published exclusively online, as they were conceived from the outset as a comment of data and indicators through interactive dynamic views (Vislet), made with CPT eXplorer, a web application for the geovisualisation of statistical information. The monographs, further enriched by national level analysis, adhere to the methodological and institutional procedures of the Regional Public Accounts project. The data were updated in April 2013. Public financial flows in the Culture and Recreational Services Sector - The Region of Piemonte The 2013 RPA monograph was drafted by the Regional Team of Regional Public Accounts of the Region of Piemonte The Regional Team of Piemonte Regional Public Accounts works in the Budget and Asset Department - General Accounting Sector and consists of: Sergio Rolando, manager; Fausto Pavia, coordinator; Monica Braghin; Maria Pia Di Cosmo; Maria Fierro; Angelo Zuffrano. It relies on the Scientific and Technical Assistance of Prof. Enrico Sorano of the University of Turin - School of Management and Economics - Department of Economics and Business Management, jointly with Dr. Milena Bessone and Dr. Daniela Cappa, as collaborators of the Regional Team of the Regional Public Accounts. The authors of the monograph are the components of the Regional Team, with the constant support of the Technical and Scientific Assistance service. The authors wish to thank the Regional Council Cabinet Presidency Directorate, Internal Audit sector and the Culture, Tourism and Sport Directorate for their collaboration. The interactive version of the 2013 edition of the RPA Monographs is available at the following address: http://www.dps.gov.it/opencms/opencms/it/cpt/Le_pubblicazioni/Le_Monografie_CPT/La_Monografia_2013/index.html Public financial flows in the Culture and Recreational Services Sector - The Region of Piemonte ContentsoftheMonograph How much was spent How much was invested 10 Additional Resources 12 What investment projects 14 Which expenditure entities 16 How spending was allocated 18 Demand, supply, use 21 Spending vs Demand and Use 23 Spending vs supply 26 Future outlook 28 7 Public financial flows in the Culture and Recreational Services Sector - The Region of Piemonte Public financial flows in the Culture and Recreational Services Sector - The Region of Piemonte Howmuchwasspent Between 2000 and 2011, the percentage share of expenditure in the Culture and Recreational Services sector in total public expenditure in Italy fell from 1.5 to 0.9 per cent, while for Piemonte this share was 1.3 per cent at the beginning of the period down to 0.8 per cent at the end of the period. The reduction is even more marked for capital expenditure, which was almost halved over the reference period: indeed, it amounted to 5.7 per cent of total capital expenditure in 2000, and subsequently, after rising in 2005 to 7.4 per cent, it fell to 3.8 per cent in 2011. In terms of per capita values, there is a widespread tendency to decrease cultural spending, both at national level and in Piemonte, where expenditure fell from EUR 152.57 in 2000 to EUR 111.91 in 2011, with a cyclical trend along the declining tendency. There was a growth phase in 2004-2005, followed by a drop in 2006-2007, and then a new increase in 20082009. The two macro components of sector spending in Piemonte are subject to different trends: current expenditure decreased from EUR 96.62 per capita in 2000 to EUR 76.51 in 2011 and, unlike other regions, it is worth noting that current expenditure levels increased in 2008 and then settled at slightly lower values than at the start of the decade. Capital expenditure decreased from EUR 56.05 per capita in 2000 to EUR 35.40 in 2011, with a very marked peak in 2005 (over EUR 100 per capita) and a marked downward trend in subsequent years. The peak in 2005, which also affected total expenditure, is attributable to the organisation and preparatory work for the Winter Olympic Games in Turin in 2006.

Data are expressed in constant 2005 euro per capita. The population used is the annual average published by ISTAT in November 2012. RPA data are deflated using the GDP deflator published by ISTAT in November 2012. 9 Public financial flows in the Culture and Recreational Services Sector - The Region of Piemonte Howmuchwasinvested Capital expenditure in the Culture and Recreational Services sector in the region of Piemonte is the smallest component of total public expenditure; nevertheless, it is important in the medium-long term as the basis for future developments and prospective implementation of regional government programming activities. Public expenditure in culture had a downward trend in the period 2000-2011, which was more marked in the capital account component (4,1 per cent in the annual average) than in current expenditure (-2.1 per cent in the annual average). During the decade however, capital expenditure trends varied: the growth in 2000 to 2005 was followed by a decreasing trend from 2006, especially after 2008, due to widespread spending cuts and the scarcity of available resources. At national level, capital expenditure in the Culture and Recreational Services sector fell sharply in all regions between 2000 and 2011 with the exception of Valle d'Aosta and Friuli Venezia Giulia. The reduction was particularly pronounced in the regions where per capita capital expenditure was higher in 2000 (Umbria, Marche, Toscana, Basilicata, Molise, EmiliaRomagna, and Abruzzo, with the exception of Lazio). Consequently, in 2011 regional differences in the levels of capital expenditure provided in culture were very low. Despite the capital expenditure component reduction being sharper than the decline in current expenditure, its impact on total public expenditure in the Culture and Recreational Services sector remains higher at national level than for all sectors. The share of capital expenditure in culture fell from 30.3 per cent in 2000 to 24.1 per cent in 2011, while the corresponding values for public spending as a whole decreased from 10.5 per cent in 2000 to 7.7 per cent in 2011. Piemonte recorded higher values than the national average in terms of percentage share of capital in total expenditure provided by the Public Sector in culture, with end of period values not falling below 30 per cent, while spending at all other institutional levels declined, except for Local Public Enterprises.

RPA data are deflated using the GDP deflator published by ISTAT in November 2012. 11 Public financial flows in the Culture and Recreational Services Sector - The Region of Piemonte AdditionalResources In Piemonte, in the last three years, additional resources contributed on average 9.3 per cent on capital expenditure provided by the Public Sector in the Culture and Recreational Services sector. These resources include both the European Structural Funds (Fondi Strutturali) and the Development and Cohesion Fund (Fondo di Sviluppo e Coesione) and are allocated to the regions proportionately to their level of economic and social development. The challenge is to make the best use of available additional resources, implementing programmes useful for regional progress and innovation, to be fully exploited by the productive fabric of the Region of Piemonte. The Regional Council set the guidelines for the integrated programming of additional resources in the context of regional cohesion policy for the period 2007-2013; the development of the cultural system in Piemonte has the prerequisite of developing a shared project with local authorities, an approach which can improve the quality of the offer. In this programming context, interventions are planned for the enhancement of the cultural and environmental heritage to promote the attractiveness of Piemonte to tourists and to network the regionally significant cultural heritage for best use. Interventions funded by cohesion policy consist of supporting infrastructure initiatives to increase awareness and appreciation of the cultural heritage to promote socio-economic development and in particular of sustainable tourism, through the recovery, revitalisation and networking of regional attractors. Funded interventions are also aimed at encouraging innovation in the field of culture and the development of new enterprises, with a view to national and international promotion of the regional territory. The objectives of the regional programming funded by the Development and Cohesion Fund for the period 2007-2013 include the development of a quality offer in the country, through demolition, restoration and installation interventions on particularly significant assets, so that they may become tourist attractors for non-residents as well; the enhancement of the historical-artistic, architectural and museum assets of excellence that bear witness to the history of a particular region; the consolidation of the Savoy Residence circuit and preservation of the cultural heritage through system actions.

There follows a brief summary of the four major initiatives. • The National Automobile Museum Carlo Biscaretti di Ruffia intervention in Turin (EUR 19 million, co-financed by the European Structural Funds) provides for the radical restructuring of the existing building, and the complete transformation of its interior layout and exhibition itinerary. The work is divided into the restructuring and rehabilitation of buildings, the restoration and the safety of architectural elements and works of art, the redevelopment and enhancement of parks and open spaces, the installation of facilities and structural and multimedia installations of exhibition spaces. • The restoration of the Monumental Complex of the Venaria Reale Palace (EUR 21 million, of which 7 co-financed by European Structural Funds) was the largest cultural heritage yard in Europe. The intervention restored the Baroque magnificence of the complex that inspired it in the middle of the Seventeenth Century and re-established the Palace as a symbol of modernity and culture. The restoration aimed to increase the attractive potential of the Palace and the Venaria Reale Gardens, by providing an increase in the flow of cultural tourism and a greater economic impact on the City of Venaria Reale. Venaria Reale, designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is at the heart of the Royal Residence circuit in Piemonte and is connected to the Royal Centre and the concentric museum system in Turin. • The Redevelopment of the Museo del Risorgimento (EUR 5 million, co-funded by European Structural Funds) originally aimed to reopen the Museum for the celebrations of the 150th anniversary of the Unification of Italy. The project provided the public with a renewed museum layout, bringing existing installations up to standard, removing architectural barriers, adopting ergonomic solutions based on the age of the visitors. Nowadays, the new Museum layout provides different itineraries, depending on time available and the interest in deepening the proposed themes. • In the Complex of the former Officine Grandi Riparazioni (EUR 3 million, cofinanced by European Structural Funds) the main purpose of investment was the enhancement of building safety and reuse, aimed at promoting and strengthening potential synergies between protection, enhancement of the environment and natural assets and productive system growth. The renovation interventions carried out helped transform the complex into an exhibition centre and the main office in Turin and Piemonte for the celebrations of 150 years of Italian Unity. • The museographic and multimedia development of the Regional Museum of Natural Sciences (about EUR 5 million, co-financed by European Structural Funds) is part of the overall programme for re-launching Museum activities, and enhancing its role in the international network of institutions aiming at the conservation and enhancement of natural and scientific collections and in the overall restoration and redeployment process of the structure that houses it. 14 Public financial flows in the Culture and Recreational Services Sector - The Region of Piemonte Definitions Used The projects were selected based on specific information in the hands of the RPA Regional Teams or extracted from OpenCoesione (Unitary Monitoring System, with reference to the 2007-2013 programming period). In both cases, the projects were selected based on the level of expenditure or strategic importance for the development of the sector on the national territory and are therefore more significant in terms of local policies. 15 Public financial flows in the Culture and Recreational Services Sector - The Region of Piemonte Whichexpenditureentities The percentage expenditure delivered by each level of government on total expenditure in the Culture and Recreational Services sector in Piemonte has evolved in the last decade, in the context of a general contraction of total sector expenditure. The government levels that decreased the most their spending in the sector include Central Government (CG), with an average annual variation of -6.3 per cent and Local Authorities (LA), whose expenditure decreased at an annual average rate of -2.7 per cent. These administrations are still the main funding providers of the cultural system throughout the reference period, with a share of spending delivered in 2011 equal to 48 per cent for Local Authorities and 25 per cent for Central Government. Conversely, the flow of expenditure provided by Local Public Enterprises (LPE) displayed a growing trend between 2000 and 2011, equal to an average annual rate of 8.5 per cent with higher absolute values at the end of the period than Regional Administration (RA) spending. At national level, there were some general differences in the roles of government levels providing funds. In Northern regions, Local Public Enterprises play a significant role in culture, while the share of expenditure by Central Government is very small compared to Local Authority spending, and, from 2004, it was also lower than Local Public Enterprises spending. Among the Local Public Enterprises, cultural foundations of regional and local level play a major role. In Piemonte, these are the main stakeholders in the regional cultural system. In Piemonte, in 2011, there were twelve cultural foundations with a majority holding by public authorities, which provided about 76.2 per cent of expenditure in culture by Local Public Enterprises and rank sixth in terms of the same percentages in other regions of Italy; Piemonte Foundations provide approximately 12 per cent of total public regional culture expenditure. Lest we forget, the active role of the private sector in the form of both banking foundations, which contribute to cultural progress and increase citizens’ awareness of initiatives and cultural events, and the multitude of non-profit organisations and associations, indicative of the community's interest in cultural and artistic events. The role of these entities is essential, especially in the general context of public sector crisis and lack of resources, because they can foster the implementation of a set of actions at zero cost to public finances, aimed at improving the status of the cultural system in Piemonte and more generally at enhancing the resources of the regional territory and promoting their use. These actions could help restore the role of the cultural sector, finalise resources, promote a partnership approach, adopt innovative support tools and develop the territorial scale. The implementation of good practices to enhance construction methods and project support to establish a new cultural paradigm for the future seems all the more urgent. 16 Public financial flows in the Culture and Recreational Services Sector - The Region of Piemonte Figure 6 - PS - Total expenditure in the cultural sector by type of expenditure entity in the region 2011 2010 2009 2008 2007 2006 2005 2004 2003 2002 2001 2000 0% 20% 40% CG 60% LA RA 80% 100% LPE Source: Data based on the Regional Public Accounts (RPA) database Table 6 - PS - Total expenditure in the cultural sector by type of expenditure entity in the region Source: Data based on the Regional Public Accounts (RPA) database Definitions Used The reference universe used is the Public Sector (PS) and is divided by type of expenditure entity, including: • Central Government (CG); • Regional Administrations (RA); • Local Authorities (LA); • Local Public Enterprises (LPE). National Public Enterprises are not included as they do not carry out activities in this sector. Total expenditure in the Culture and Recreational Services sector is measured net of: • interest expenses; • corrective and compensatory revenue entries; • equity holdings and contributions; • granting of loans. Data are expressed in constant 2005 euro per capita. The population used is the annual average published by ISTAT in November 2012. RPA data are deflated using the GDP deflator published by ISTAT in November 2012. 17 Public financial flows in the Culture and Recreational Services Sector - The Region of Piemonte Howspendingwasallocated In the period 2000-2011, expenditure in the Culture and Recreational Services sector in Piemonte was substantially stable relative to staff costs, with an average per capita value around EUR 18. Even the purchase of goods and services, with the exception of the reduction in 2006, did not diverge significantly from the average for the period of approximately EUR 30 per capita. Conversely, investment spending was highly variable, and affected the total expenditure trend, with a positive peak in 2005 (when expenditure per capita amounted to EUR 63.03) and a substantial reduction with a minimum in 2010, equal to a value of EUR 23.70 per capita. The main expenditure entities are Local Authorities, followed by Central Government, Local Public Enterprises and the Regional Administration. With reference to Local Authorities, between the beginning and the end of the period in question there was a decrease in the main expenditure items. Staff costs decreased from EUR 8.44 per capita in 2000 to EUR 7.57 in 2011. The purchase of goods and services fell from EUR 21.21 in the first year to EUR 15.30 in the last. Investments fell from EUR 33.12 to EUR 20.39. The role of the Local Public Enterprises as cultural expenditure entities in Piemonte increased substantially during the decade, with a share of sector spending increasing from 5.1 per cent in 2000 to 17.1 per cent in 2011. The composition of expenditure of these enterprises seems particularly important, with more marked growth trends in the investment component and in staff costs, with absolute values which were higher at the end of the period than those registered by Regional Administration and Central Government. At national level, the allocation of expenditure by main economic categories is differentiated by region; in Northern regions, staff costs are around EUR 25 per capita for the whole decade, investments amounted to about EUR 30 per capita and the purchase of goods and services was about EUR 40 per capita. The situation in Central regions is very different: the purchase of goods and services increased exponentially since 2005, reaching EUR 71 per capita in 2011. In the South, both staff costs and the purchase of goods and services were around EUR 20 per capita throughout the rest of the decade. Central Government expenditure is high in the Centre, amounting to about EUR 60 per capita due to the consistent concentration in the Lazio Region, while in the North, cultural expenditure is predominantly provided by Local Authorities.

National Public Enterprises are not included as they do not carry out activities in this sector. The Economic Categories included (which represent, at the national level, about 70 per cent of total expenditure) are: • Staff costs; • Purchase of goods and services; • Investments. Data are expressed in constant 2005 euro per capita. The population used is the annual average published by ISTAT in November 2012. RPA data are deflated using the GDP deflator published by ISTAT in November 2012. 20 Public financial flows in the Culture and Recreational Services Sector - The Region of Piemonte Demand,supply,use Household spending on cultural and recreational activities ranks first in Piemonte compared to the average for the North, Centre, and South throughout the reference period and, in 2010, it amounted to 8.8 per cent of total expenditure in final consumption. In the last decade, cultural participation has grown in all cultural and recreational areas (with the exception of sports practice and clubs), even if the growth rates were lower than the national average. The best performances in recent years were reported especially in the cultural heritage sector (museums, monuments, exhibitions). In this specific sector of museum access, there was a real boom mainly due to the presence of hikers and tourists and the loyalty of a pre-existing public rather than an expansion of the customer base of citizens trying this new experience. Overall, 1.5 million citizens in Piemonte stated they had seen a show or visited a museum in 2012. Compared to other regions, Piemonte ranks fourth for visits to museums and exhibitions. In the last ten years, theatres saw a consistent number of tickets sold, while classical music concerts almost doubled the number of tickets sold, from 123,000 in 2000 to 233,000 in 2011, compared to a very small increase in the participation rate in absolute terms. Ticket sales thus increased, but the customer base, which has the characteristics of a niche, remained substantially unchanged. Cultural demand by the population in Piemonte has a positive trend, which, at the end of the reference period, raised the region above the national average, in eighth place of the ranking of the regions in terms of the synthetic index of use. Cultural heritage demand increased exponentially in Piemonte in the last decade, thanks both to a season of substantial investment and sector policies that significantly improved physical and intangible facets of the cultural sector. The challenge is to maintain and strengthen the cultural offering in Piemonte and its attractiveness at both national and European level, in spite of a cyclical situation characterised by lack of resources and progressive decrease of public intervention in the sector.

The index is obtained by summing the individual indicators of use published by ISTAT (Multipurpose household survey: aspects of everyday life). Thus, the index can take values higher than 100, and can be used to analyse the relative positions of different regions; • Index of cultural heritage resource endowment: Number of archaeological, architectural, and museum assets counted in the information system "Cultural Heritage Risk Map" (of the Ministry of Heritage and Cultural Activities and Tourism) per 100 km². 22 Public financial flows in the Culture and Recreational Services Sector - The Region of Piemonte SpendingvsDemandandUse In Piemonte, the propensity for the population to participate in cultural events grew over the decade, with a synthetic index of use increasing from 173.4 to 185.7 per cent, compared to a decrease of the region's share of public spending in the Culture and Recreational Services sector on the national total, from 6.9 to 6.6 per cent. At national level, cultural demand increased in all regions and especially in Basilicata, Abruzzo, Valle d'Aosta, the Autonomous Province of Trento (outlier in the graph) and Piemonte. However, even though the Southern regions were characterised by an increase in cultural demand, they remained at the bottom of the ranking of Italian regions by index of cultural use. In 2010 Italian households spent on average 7.3 per cent of total expenditure for final consumption on cultural consumption. This share of spending remained nearly constant in the last decade, the corresponding values in Piemonte are higher than the Italian average, and improved further at the end of the period, when the region of Piemonte ranked first in terms of share of cultural consumption on total household consumption, with a value in 2010 equal to 8.8 per cent. This is evidence, on the one hand, of the interest in and propensity of the Piemonte population to attend cultural and artistic events and, on the other hand, of the success of policies adopted by local administrations operating in culture. Indeed, these policies increased the offer and access to cultural opportunities and, at the same time, improved their attractiveness and capillarity.

The index is obtained by summing the individual indicators of use published by ISTAT (Multipurpose household survey: aspects of everyday life). Thus, the index can take values higher than 100, and it can be used to analyse the relative positions of different regions. The Indicator was not reported for 2004. The Consumption Rate for households on recreational and cultural activities is defined as follows: Final consumption expenditure by households (resident and non) on recreation and culture over Total Expenditure on final consumption by households (%). Total expenditure in the Culture and Recreational Services sector is measured net of: • interest expenses; • corrective and compensatory revenue entries; • equity holdings and contributions; • granting of loans. The data are calculated as expenditure in the region over the national total (%). 25 Public financial flows in the Culture and Recreational Services Sector - The Region of Piemonte Spendingvssupply In Piemonte, culture plays a prominent role in terms of added value and employment; in 2011, there were more than 32,000 enterprises active in different sectors of cultural production and the value added by the industry (aggregating the private and public sectors) amounted to about EUR 7 billion, equal to 6.1 per cent of the total for the region, with 126,000 employees, equal to 6.2 per cent of the employed in Piemonte. The three main types of activity include the sector linked to architecture, videogames and the publishing industry. Almost half the value added generated in the region is attributable to cultural industries; 46 per cent is related to creative industries, which involve design, crafts, communication and architecture activities. By observing the relationship between the cultural heritage resource endowment of architectural, archaeological and museum assets per 100 km² on 31 December 2012 and the total expenditure in culture, the Region of Piemonte doesn’t rank among the most virtuous regions but it is placed at an intermediate level. The average endowment of cultural heritage resources in the regions of Northern Italy amounts to 34.9 per 100 km² compared to 27.5 per 100 km² in Piemonte. The latter ranks eleventh among the Italian regions. The cultural endowment in Piemonte is lower than the average for the North and nationwide, mainly because it is concentrated in the large urban centres, especially in the Province of Turin. The regional share of expenditure on culture in Piemonte on the national total is equal to 6.6 per cent and is much lower than that of Lombardia (11.6 per cent) and Veneto (8.6 per cent). Thus, Piemonte is sixth in the ranking of Italian regions.

Total expenditure in the Culture and Recreational Services sector is measured net of: • interest expenses; • corrective and compensatory revenue entries; • equity holdings and contributions; • granting of loans. The data are calculated as expenditure in the region over the national total (%). 27 Public financial flows in the Culture and Recreational Services Sector - The Region of Piemonte Futureoutlook The Region of Piemonte places substantial importance on supporting art in all its forms, providing a structured series of interventions ranging from the direct implementation of projects, to support in the form of contributions to organisations, institutions, and associations both for their ordinary activities, and for the implementation of specific projects, initiatives and events. In addition, over the years, important collaborations were established with highly active institutions and associations on the regional territory, with a prominent and acknowledged role in the promotion and management of artistic and cultural events. To encourage the development of Culture, Tourism and Sport in Piemonte, the goal to be soon achieved consists of the consolidation of the offer, in order to evenly distribute the resources in the territory and enhance activities of excellence. The main interventions for the pursuit of the objectives and the related implementation tools include: • The comparison with institutions that represent and are familiar with culture, tourism and sports in the territory; • The implementation of negotiated planning at national and EU level, as well as the activity of guiding local authorities in the development of interventions in the area of culture, sports and tourism with particular regard to youth initiatives; • Promotional activities, participation in tourist fairs in Italy, by selecting the latter based on the markets with the greatest impact on tourist-cultural demand. The expected results consist in the implementation of models of territorial cooperation aimed at restoring balance and rationalising the distribution of resources in the territory, the establishment of a new legal entity that systemises several assets of cultural excellence (the Gallery of Modern Art, Palazzo Madama, the Medieval Village, the Museum of Oriental Art, the Museum of Contemporary Art in Rivoli, the Turin European Capital City Association) and the stabilisation of the resources available to the cultural sector in multi-annual programming. 28
