News: Industry support is "number one priority" – Vaizey
Shadow Arts minister Ed Vaizey MP has restated his claim that a Tory government would look very seriously at fiscal measures to support the UK video industry during a panel session which took place today at the National Endowment for Science, Technology and the Arts (NESTA).
The event, entitled Playing the Game, marked the release of a new report into the state of development in the UK, with Vaizey stressing the the importance of the industry to the country’s business landscape.
“I think that the video industry, in terms of the political world, has come an enormous distance,” he said. “When people like Richard Wilson and ELSPA came to see me, they described this industry which is a politician’s dream, and I couldn’t understand why it wasn’t more prominent…and the only way we heard about it was when Keith Vaz raised it in a motion about serial killers.”
