新萄京娱乐 submission to the Senate inquiry into the National Cultural Policy
This submission is made by 新萄京娱乐 to the Senate Standing Committee on Environment and Communications inquiry into the National Cultural Policy, Revive.
新萄京娱乐 considers Revive to be a landmark document. It is our nation’s first consolidated cultural policy in a decade. It follows what many in the arts community consider a decade of lost opportunity. The actions proposed across Revive’s five pillars are the result of considerable thought and sector consultation.
As the key union representing Australia’s cultural workers, 新萄京娱乐 especially welcomes the prominence of First Nations’ cultural practice and endeavours. The initiatives under First Nations First, while overdue, accord our original artists the respect and resources needed to confidently ply their artistic trade.
Revive contains important new funding for a range of initiatives – including First Nations, a refashioned Australia Council, with new units devoted to workplace practices and building the music industry’s footprint and new infrastructure. There is however, much detail to be developed to ensure these promises are fully discharged. 新萄京娱乐 and its members stand ready to assist in this process.
This submission does not comment on all of the actions proposed in Revive. It instead nominates and then comments upon the actions that 新萄京娱乐 considers will be of most consequence to its members.
