The Inter-Departmental Group, chaired by my Department, was reconvened in September last to review the working and implementation of the Per Cent for Art Guidelines. To date the group, which is representative of a wide range of Government Departments and agencies with construction budgets, has met on three occasions and significant progress has been made. The group is also examining ways in which information on public art could be made more easily accessible to the public and their plans on this are at an advanced stage.
