During spokesperson’s Questions to Labour’s Minister for Culture, Skills and Social Partnership, Welsh Conservative Shadow Cabinet Secretary for Culture, Tourism and Sport, Gareth Davies MS, raised concerns about the accountability of arm’s length bodies managing government-funded institutions.
Commenting after the exchange in the Senedd, Gareth Davies MS, said:
“Our national institutions and museums should be representing all views of Wales and not just one school of thought. Instead, we’ve seen previous exhibits at Cardiff Museum promoting ideologically driven themes that don’t resonate with the majority of Welsh people.
“Any prudent Government spending taxpayers’ money must ensure proper auditing and accountability to track how public funds are used.
“Where’s the accountability, from Labour? If taxpayer money is being spent on divisive exhibits, there must be mechanisms to hold these institutions to account.”
