Australian and Children’s Screen Content Review: Consultation Paper Released
Responses due by Wednesday 20 September.
The Australian and Children’s Content Review is inviting responses to a discussion paper which was released last week. The discussion paper articulates the policy objectives and design principles that underpin the Review and asks whether they are appropriate and cover all the issues. It invites comment on the types of Australian screen content that should be supported by Australian Government incentives and/or regulation, and asks for feedback on the strengths and weaknesses of the current system.
The Consultation Paper is extremely simple and it is not necessary to respond to each question.
The Consultation Paper can be accessed here.
Your submission can be provided to the Review by email to contentreview@communications.gov.au.
