Answer
Answered by Deputy Minister for Arts, Sport and Tourism
Officials in Cadw meet regularly meet representatives of different faith communities to discuss strategic issues as well as specific conservation and repair projects. Cadw is also a member of the places of worship forum which has just been re-established. The forum brings representatives from across the places of worship sector together with other stakeholders to discuss challenges and encourage support. Several well-attended meetings of forum members have been held recently and a programme of regular meetings is envisaged for the months ahead.
