Further commentary from MUSIC:ED which appears to be a site about music education: Arts Council England’s grant disbursal changes draw mixed receptionAt least [compared with English National Opera] the EFDSS retains that majority of its funding, but what does spreading the residual £140,000 across numerous little organisations do to improve the profile of English folk music and dance that wasn’t already being done by the society? I can't find the ACE document that is quoted by EFDSS - the reference to "more place across London" is unclear. As quoted it doesn't seem to support the claim that the location of the EFDSS H/Q in London is the issue.
