Horse Agistment Paddock Survey

(2)& During 1992/93, users of Government horse agistment paddocks were

(3) surveyed to determine the types of facilities and services they required.

The survey was conducted internally by Departmental staff and no cost has been attributed to it.

The survey has resulted in a Community Service Agreement between the Department and horse paddock users which outlines agreed levels of service to be provided. A copy of the Agreement has been provided to Mrs Carnell.

Opening the Doors - Review of Performing Arts by Young People in the ACT

In 1992 the ACT Cultural Council sought tenders for a review into performing arts by young people in the ACT. Council considered that the information available to it in this area was inadequate.

Ernst and Young were the successful tenders and commenced research through questionnaires and focus group meetings.

The report was launched on 9 June 1994 and the final cost for the research and report was $26,000. The main findings were that:

growth in the ACT youth population is more than double the rate recorded nationally; youth cultural development needs are not being fully met; an explicit policy for youth cultural activity should be developed;

funds of up to $50,000, from within the ACT Cultural Development Grant Program, should be allocated to contemporary youth activities;

the application process youth should be easier to understand.

A copy of the report has been provided to Mrs Carnell.
