Administrative / biographical background

In November 1997, the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport commissioned Sir Richard Eyre to conduct an independent review of the future of the Royal Opera House and the English National Opera. His remit was to offer recommendations that would improve financial stability, maximum value for public money, and widening access to the company's work.
