NSW Premier Mike Baird and Deputy Premier Troy Grant have announced this week that should the Baird Government be re-elected, it would create a $600 million Arts and Cultural Infrastructure Fund as part of its Rebuilding NSW Plan.
Baird said: ‘We’ll invest $202 million to upgrade Australia’s most recognisable asset, the Sydney Opera House, to a world-class performance standard that will enrich the experience for the eight million tourists who visit the global icon each year.’
