Leading arts bodies representing thousands of artists and performers across the state also criticised the adequacy, integrity, and lack of transparency of the government’s arts funding process.Janie Barrett
Under persistent questioning from Labor MLC John Graham and committee chair, David Shoebridge, public works officials for Regional NSW were unable to identify the paperwork for its funding assessment and took the question on notice.Mr Shoebridge said it was significant that more than two years after the by-election the business case was not yet complete.
Penelope Benton, acting chief executive of the National Association for the Visual Arts, said the success rate for arts funding was typically between 15 and 20 per cent, and in some recent rounds had fallen to less than 3 per cent. “If we don’t get our multi-year funding we will be in exactly the same position at the end of the year,” Ms McCredie said.
