The authority would like to / has responded by postal mail to this request.

Please may I under the Freedom of Information. Request full and comprehensive detail for the original application for Prestatyn Youth Arts Festival in partnership with Prestatyn Scala Cinema and Arts Centre? Thank you.

To cover the point/s below but not to be limited by them.

1) Full, unedited and comprehensive detail as allowed under the Freedom of Information of the original Prestatyn Youth Arts Festival in partnership with Prestatyn Scala Cinema and Arts Centre grant application, conditions of acceptance and time frame for completion. Please?

It is understood Cllr Rhiannon Hughes of Meliden has applied for £3,850 from Prestatyn Town Council out of the £21,850 Estimated total cost of the project. Information gained from the original Prestatyn Town Events grant application. It is also understood both yourselves (Arts Council of Wales), Denbighshire County Council and Npower have all contributed to this project. Information gained from The Rhyl Journal paper.

It is also understood the project is, yet not named on the Prestatyn Town Events grant application, to celebrate 100 years of Cinema in Prestatyn. With a History Queue mural in the cinema. It is also understood from staff Prestatyn Scala Cinema and Arts Centre, that the original idea of inviting Prestatyn residents to buy 50 times £50 places on the wall. Didn't for fill it's target.

Also the idea of 50 Prestatyn residents being nominated for the wall is being considered/voted on by Cllr Rhiannon Hughes and Cllr Julian Thompson-Hill as part of the Scala trustees. Which also I understand hasn't met it's target of 50 nominations.

Both these targets have been moved from a closing date of January 31st 2010 to what was quoted as indefinitely or until the 100 (50+50) figure is reached.

To avoid expense and for speed of reply. Email attachment and/or .pdf documentation would be acceptable and preferred. But postal photocopy's is also acceptable if convenient to yourselves Thank you.

Please let me know if my question needs clarifying to avoid further questions that might arise due to ambiguous answers. I'll be happy to resupply in a format that will let you either supply photocopy/.pdf information (dependent on quantity) or supply information without the need to edit any answers you feel I have not asked. Or brief answers that could arise to second and third questions.

Once again thank you for your help.
