The Ministry supports the Minister for Arts, Culture and Heritage, the Minister of Broadcasting and the Minister for Sport and Recreation, providing advice on where government best focuses its interventions in the cultural sector. We seek to ensure that Vote funding is invested as effectively and efficiently as possible, that it delivers the best outcomes for New Zealanders, and that government priorities are met.
