All Welsh Government funding for the arts is channelled through the Arts Council of Wales. I met with ACW on 29 April to discuss the current position of the arts sectors in Wales, including the Music sector. Under the arm’s-length funding principle the Welsh Government does not intervene in its funding decisions.
