Prime Minister Scott Morrison said the rescue package would help the arts industry re-build over the next yearGreens Senator Sarah Hanson-Young say more still needs to be done
"This package is as much about supporting the tradies who build stage sets or computer specialists who create the latest special effects, as it is about supporting actors and performers in major productions," he said. $90 million in concessional loans to help fund new productions. Loans will be delivered through commercial banks with a Commonwealth guarantee
Yeah, I don’t think the arts are going to drag us out of recession or stimulate the economy. This is money spent to entertain the wealthy in a few major cities.
So 250mil down the shitter then?
More akin to a wet firecracker all this

TheirABC sucks up that amount every 3 months. Think about that.
Government: But also don’t study Arts.
