Question to the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport:
To ask the Secretary of State for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport, whether Arts Council England have made an estimate of the (a) number of people employed by the English National Opera and (b) proportion of those employees who would be able to move out of London.
Decisions on issues relating to staff employment and location are always made by organisations independently of both HM Government and Arts Council England. Arts Council England is, however, currently working with the English National Opera on possibilities for the future of the organisation.
