A ministerial submission dated July 2024 sought approval from the Minister for the Arts to launch the *Revive Live* grant program, a music industry support initiative. The submission recommended approval of grant guidelines, a three-week competitive application process commencing August 5, 2024, and authorization to write to the Minister for Finance requesting approval to release the guidelines. The Department had consulted music industry experts following the Minister's June meeting and incorporated feedback into the guidelines, which received a medium risk rating from Finance and the Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet. The submission acknowledged potential industry criticism regarding exclusions of ongoing insurance costs from eligible expenditure, funding caps, and the limitation of eligible applicants to majority-Australian owned organizations. Assessment processes were scheduled to enable ministerial consideration of applications from September 20, 2024 onwards.
