Remaking of Sunsetting Instrument Without Significant Amendments

Film Certification Advisory Board Rules 2008, Post Digital and Visual Effects (PDV) Offset Rules 2008, Location Offset Rules 2008 and Producer Offset Rules 2007

On 1 April 2018, the above mentioned legislative instruments were scheduled to sunset. However, the Department of Communications and the Arts has decided to remake these instruments with minor amendments.

These legislative instruments underpin the administration of the Australian Screen Production Incentive (ASPI). The ASPI is designed to support the screen industry in Australia and provides tax incentives for eligible screen productions.

Consistent with Government best practice regulation requirements for sunsetting instrument, the Department of Communications and the Arts, after review and consultation, has remade the instrument with minor amendments to ensure that the instruments remain fit-for-purpose. Therefore, under the Government’s best practice requirements, a Regulation Impact Statement (RIS) is not required for remaking these Rules.
