MINISTER FOR THE ARTS
LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY QUESTION
QUESTION NO 31 6
Childers Street Theatre Management
Advisory Working Party
Mr Cornwell asked the Minister for the Arts
In relation to membership of the Management Advisory Group for the new Childers Street Theatre of seven women, four men and one vacancy (Enigami August 1992), why was gender equity not observed.
Mr Wood - the answer to the Members question is as follows:
A public forum to discuss possible management -models for the new Childers Street Theatre was held on Monday 22 June 1992. At this public meeting it was decided to determine membership criteria for a Management Working Party. It was decided that a diverse range of performing arts practitioners, with a range of management skills and representing different cultural perspectives, should be selected.
A second public meeting was held on 13 July 1992 to elect a Childers Street Theatre Management Advisory Working Party according to the criteria established at the previous meeting. The meeting voted to elect the eleven suitably qualified people currently serving on the Management Advisory Group for the new Childers Street Theatre.
As can be seen, the Advisory Group was formed as a result of community meetings and was not appointed by the Government.
