Summary of Changes from Previous Version

The Art Promotion and Collection Policy was scheduled to be reviewed in January 2026, however, due to the comments provided by an external review (International Conservation Services - ICS), establishment of the Western Sydney Creative and retirement of the Vice Chancellor’s Art Advisory Committee, the policy review was brought forward. The revised and renamed policy addresses the gaps identified by the ICS review, changes to the governance structure and has been significantly amended for clarity, improved syntax and plain English.
