▶ AUSTRALIA COUNCIL REVIEW SURVEY

Last year hundreds of public submissions were received in response to the National Cultural Policy discussion paper.

As the Australia Council is such a significant channel in which the Australian Government delivers support to the arts and cultural sector, it was not surprising that many submissions discussed the role of the agency.

The Minister for the Arts announced an independent review into the Australia Council which will contribute to the development of the policy. Information on the Review’s Terms of Reference can be found HERE.

The Chairs of the Review, Mr Angus James and Ms Gabrielle Trainor, are very interested in your views about whether the original purpose of the Australia Council remains relevant today and what changes, if any, you would like to see made to the agency’s role and delivery of support to the sector.

Your confidential contribution to the Australia Council Review is valued.

This questionnaire should only take around 8-10 minutes and can only be completed in one sitting. The survey is being undertaken for the Review by TNS Social Research on behalf of the Australian Government’s Office for the Arts.

Take this opportunity to have your say.
