Bill: Art & Culture Funding Act of January 3982
Details
Submitted by[?]: Labour Party
Status[?]: passed
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: September 3982
Description[?]:
| We must ensure that we are properly funding both libraries and art. We cannot rely on local governments giving appropriate levels of subsidization and funding to libraries and art. Both are crucial in the development of Beluzia and budding young academics and artists should not be put off by our perceived lack of care for our culture and for our quest for knowledge. |

| Message | We support this measure, any party that reasonably thinks we can have a competitive edge in education on the international scene without an endowment for the arts and a large network of public libraries funded by the central government is not on the side of the youth and under class of our nation. Vote Yes |
