Committee on Budgetary Oversight

Film Sector Tax Credits: Discussion

Mr. John Arkins:

At the end of the production, and if I were the head of department, HOD, I would be given first dibs regarding what was needed on the next production. It might be the fork truck, the scaffolding, the tools and the machinery, for example. A warehouse would then be bought and everything would be put in it. It would be possible to get it for practically nothing. No receipt will be given, nor will there be a bill of sale. Nothing like that is provided. The gear is just taken and brought off. When the next job starts, the producer rings the HOD.
