The big question on that is what support the likes of the Arts Council and other entities get in making sure those template contracts are amended for their specific project. We saw that the Arts Council, from the outset, was set up for failure because it did not know what it wanted, and it did not have KPIs, deliverables, penalties or service credits. Where is the level of support for entities that do not have the expertise, either legal or IT, within them to make sure that they are amending any templates?
