Update on Collections Council funding

The Board and Secretariat wish to thank all those who have offered support in response to the advice that the Cultural Ministers Council (CMC) will cease its funding of the Collections Council of Australia. The Collections Council now confirms that the CMC will cease its funding of the Collections Council of Australia. The final Funding Agreement ends on 30 June 2010.
The Collections Council will wind down its activities over coming months and will then proceed to wind up the company.
The CMC is establishing a Working Group to consider any future approach to matters relating to the sector.
