Margus Allikmaa says that cultural funding has grown in recent years. It may continue to grow in the future. The problem is the high costs.
Cultural workers are receiving higher salaries. Cultural funding will not decrease in the future. Cultural funding has grown in recent years.
Cultural funding depends on the economy. Culture always receives less money than other sectors. There are many emotions involved in culture.
There are many more cultural institutions than before. For example, theaters and museums. Allikmaa does not want to end state funding.
The salaries of cultural workers are too low. The minimum wage equalizes pay. The minimum wage should not be fixed.
Cultural Capital funding will increase next year. Projects will receive more money. Cultural Capital helps freelancers and non-governmental institutions. They will do slightly better next year.
