Some countries have understood that arts and entertainment is more than an expense, it's an industry that makes money. We're struggling to adopt that mentality.
As you mentioned earlier, and we've often heard it said in discussions with various stakeholders and entertainment industry representatives, everything revolves around predictability. You can't organize a festival in one month or a few weeks. You have to know in advance.
What you're telling me is that, as a result of the committee's recommendations, the government made some beneficial budget announcements, but you still haven't received the money and it's February. You still can't plan for the upcoming season.
Did I understand correctly?
