New Arts Council England Structure

The new Arts Council England structure came into operation on 1 July 2013, following an organisation review. The changes come as a result of the requirement, made as part of Arts Council England’s previous 2010 settlement for 2011-15, that ACE reduce its administrative costs by 50 per cent as applied to its Grant in Aid for the arts by March 2015. As part of these changes five areas have replaced the nine Arts Council regions.
