By the beginning of the Feat•, the pr-ofixrnd impact of ] .arttery funding On the arts was already plain to sec . Wlicr ) Virginia Rottomley, then Secretary of State for Nationa l HCritagC, Outlined proposals to Cstcnd funding t_WVOn d capital projects, it became clear that the impact was set to

spread into the furthest corners ofour arts landscapc -

The then Gciverriment s new policy directions signalled th e dawn of a new era in which LOttere funding is no longe r 011fincd to bricks, mortar and hardware . Ltstead, we are riow free to shift the ff wus of 1nvice tmcm from inanimat e assets towards the arts community itself.

'1 - he stabilisarion programme, l1LIIIChcd in ScptCmher, sVmbolises this new cmpha " i .s on the human factor . l r represents a welcome departure from the traditiona l approach to addressing problems by imposing short-term , presCriprivC SOIntio ns. Now, the emphasis is on dcvclopirl g long-term sollt6011s alongside the pcOplC most CIOSCI V attached to an orr;anisatiom its staff .

A , t•ou will we from the list oil page 48, the I S organis.tirAns scletted to rake part in the pilot stabilisation scheme represent a broad range cif activitics and areas . Indeed, COnrlnitment to dIVCrsity - gcograpllical an d artistic - is t consistent f~arurc of all the -errs Count s initiatives . It is particularly evident in Lhe .errs for Everyone schemes, which have :attracted applications from a n ,astonishing Cross-section of arts groups -- amateur an d p1'0fC.SSI0na1 - up and dott'n the Countrv. It is significant , cur>, that the higgc.t grams awarded by the main Capita l Programme went to projects outside London .

The seeds of success sown over the `ear bV our film findin g .theme came to splendid fruition in May at Cannes . Here , we took the opportunity to highlight vet another majo r funding initiative: the film franchise sclicnte .

With the authnrln- to distribute National Lotten , revenue conics the legal responsibilin , for ensuring that it i s distributed according to the rules - and in tile PUhli C interest. After all, Lotten, revenue is public looney:

At the Arts Council, this responsibility - Nyhcre capita l projects are concerned - falls to the Lortcn• Projects Department . Established in May 1996 with th e appointment of Lotter' Projects Director Nicole Mill - Symons, the department was up and running by al e auruillrl. Its task is twofold : first, it monitors t i l e Pl-()L'FCS S of capital schemes ; then it CvaltlatCN the111 .

Monitoring forms the core of the team ' s activities . It involves overseeing the payment of grants against agree d schrdulcs, and enSen•i n ,t; that recipients meet the conditirm s of their awards. Givcii the rising volume and conlplcxin_• o f arts-related capital projects now trndcnvay, monitoring is a highly dcmandinL= Business. However, it is underpinned b y clear-rut proccdtu-cs in tyhich Information technology plaV S a key part .

The Government's criteria governing the award of Lotter_ -rants provide an invalu able point of reterence wher e judgint, the merits of particular projects. But where the art s are concerned, making qualitative judgenletrts can never b e an exact science . So post-completion evaluation is hacked by objective checks and balances . Developing these wil l become an increasingly important part or the Lottery Projects Deparrmcnt's work .

Last year, The department oversaw a number of special pilo t studies.
