	Uncorrected Evidence 912
		Dame Liz Forgan: I think sometimes experts fear that but I think our experience is that if you engage amateurs/local people/non-experts in a discussion about heritage for more than about 30 seconds you quite quickly arrive at an extremely sophisticated view of the subject.
		Dame Liz Forgan: I think that if you talk to the owners of historic houses they will tell you that in the past support that was available to them from, say, English Heritage was much greater and it is no longer what it used to be because English Heritage's funding has declined.
		Dame Liz Forgan: I am very grateful to you for raising that question because it would be wrong for me to leave this room without hoping very much that when the Committee comes to consider its report it might give some thought to this.

		Forgan identifies this as "the hottest, most passionately controversial topic" in Farringdon Road.
		Forgan, 59, a product of Benenden now living in Primrose Hill, says she is not bothered by her own reputation as something of an overweening head girl - elaborated in some conservative newspapers during her days running the BBC's radio networks and before that as Channel 4's director of programmes.
		SHE was more upset by coverage of her personal life, notably her long-term relationship with Rex Cowan, a married older man whose wife apparently gave it her blessing.

	UNCORRECTED TRANSCRIPT OF ORAL EVIDENCE
		Ms Forgan: As Carole has indicated, that would be a substantial cost to us at the same time as we are having this discussion about interest on the balances, but we regard it as a great opportunity as well.
		Picking up Liz Forgan's point about the opportunity that the Olympics presents, presumably you will have some investment, or some projects which will be considered for investment, as part of the show-casing.
		As Liz was indicating earlier, the range of projects that we support is enormous.
