Department of Culture and the Arts
(a) No. Acquittals for all grants funded by the Department of Culture and the Arts are due 12 weeks after project completion. A limited component of the Ignite package was for grants programs managed by the Department of Culture and the Arts, which would therefore require acquittal. It should be noted that many of the activities funded by Ignite are ongoing and not yet due for acquittal.
(b) (i) the amount involved for each grant; and
(ii) the purpose of each grant;

The
Matched Primetime Television Production Fund
is intended to promote, enhance and expand the Western Australian independent production sector. It provides finance for primetime projects produced in WA, by independent producers, with a broadcast commitment from the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC), commissioned for either ABC1 or ABC2.
ScreenWest provides investment production funding for primetime projects which, in most cases, will match the funding offered to the producer by the ABC. The Fund also provides primetime project development to selected productions, where this is matched in amount by the ABC and adequate funds are available.
Applications for production and development funding are assessed by ScreenWest on the basis of the development outcomes for the Western Australian film and television industry resulting from the proposed production.
