Bill: Cultural Act
Details
Submitted by[?]: People's Party of Endralon
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: August 4200
Description[?]:
| Article 1 We beleive that artistic institutions, and especially their decision making boards, can sometimes be biased in their judgment. Therefore we think case by case individuals should be subsidised. Article 2 We think that this issue is still too important to be left for local governments. Article 3 We think that not only operation, but funding should be the responsibility of local governments. Article 4 We think museums are part of aour nation's cultural heritage so should be supported by the government. Article 2 would free up some funds but are not enough for Article 1,3 and 4, so we will ask for a budget raise for the Ministry. This Bill is proposed by Bálint Anna, Minister of Education and Culture. |
