Answer from Hansard
The Minister for Creative Industries, Arts and Tourism (Chris Bryant)
I want every child to have a chance to learn how to play a musical instrument or take part in music, and I want every musician to be able to make a living out of their career. I am working on better support for small venues across the UK and better remuneration for legacy artists, songwriters and session musicians.
