Please provide a brief summary of your suggestion. More funding for the Arts so they can be sustainable and competitive with other industries in order to deliver ideas and enjoyment to the Canberra community.    
What services do you believe are most important for the Territory? Arts, health and transport
How can the Government deliver current services more efficiently and productively?By investing in spaces and services that require minimal maintenance and analysing what its core business is.
Are there particular services that you consider the Government should stop delivering or perhaps should deliver in a different way?Reduce all the current major percentages by 1% e.g. health, Delivering government services, Justice and safety, Tams and increase the arts budget by 4%. 
Are there any new ways to generate revenue and/or services you consider that the community should make a direct contribution to (a fee for service)?No, rates keep rising as it is and the community already pays for punitive measures such as the white speeding vans and parking tickets. 
What are your views on the Government’s taxation reforms, noting that its main objective is to replace inefficient taxes (such as conveyances and insurance premiums) with an efficient land-based tax? As long as its cheaper for the people then OK.
Is there any infrastructure that the Government should consider initiating in the next four years?Yes a beach and wave pool like in Darwin but located near the lake.
