I am advised ScreenWest is aware of two film projects in Western Australia that have received funding through Royalties for Regions. The Minister for Regional Development is best placed to provide details on projects funded by Royalties for Regions.
Feature film Red Dog received funding from Royalties for Regions through the Pilbara Development Commission. The Pilbara region and the entire State is benefiting from the funding. As at 13 September 2011 this film had recorded box offices sales of $14.85 million.
The feature film Drift, which recently completed filming in the Margaret River area, received funding from Royalties for Regions through the South West Development Commission. The South West region received economic and social benefits during filming, and further benefits to the region and State are expected in the lead-up to and following the film's theatrical release.
