"New Goods and Services Tax to hit hard at Australian arts."
1999-07-20 until 1999-07-20
National Association for the Visual Arts
Sydney, , AU Australia

The Australian Federal Government will introduce a goods and services (or value added) tax with potentially serious consequences for the visual arts sector. Despite lengthy submissions from the industry calling for protection in the form of zero tax ratings for artists and arts organisations and/or compensation in the form of grants and exemptions, the tax is to be introduced with no immediate compensation. This wait and see approach from the government seems likely to condemn many promising artists' careers and organisations to oblivion, before any rescue offers might be considered.
